clicking noise when driving on the uneven surface

DamAlex · 11-06-2023, 11:45 AM

NEED HELP GUYS.

I had the windshield changed about a month ago. It started making this kind of noise when it was changed. At first, I thought it was the windshield problem and I asked the window company to get another one installed but the problem still exists.

Does anyone know how to fix it? It drove me crazy when I heard the noise.

here is the video showing the noise.

It sounds like from your speaker?

No，it sounds like from the gap between windshield and dashboard.

Have some try to press against the dashboard away from the windshield while your driving. And see if it makes noise. The plastic slightly expanding or retracting during certain weather temps can create gaps and cause noise. It happened with my Toyota.

Some kind of soft padded tape could be a cheap solution.

There is a gap between the dashboard and windshield/firewall that goes quite deep down. Try stuffing some fabric/carpet down there to see if it helps.
