Hissing sound with top open

Dono · 01-18-2021, 10:42 AM

I’m getting a wind hissing sound with the convertible top open at 60mph and higher. Does anyone know what that could be?

The wind won't be as loud with the top up

lol sorry I couldn't help myself. I don't have a roadster, but my Craftsquare mirrors whistle pretty loudly in certain conditions. It varies mostly based on my speed combined with the atmosphere wind speed/direction. I'm guessing yours is more of a constant hiss or does it vary with speed? First thing I think I'd check is to make sure the top is fully seated when stored.

I hear this hissing around 60mph but can be sooner depending on wind direction. I will look at the side mirrors thanks for the advice.
