Sometimes coating the seal with rubber rejuvenator helps. Also, loosen and re-tighteningthe screws holding the luggage rack. Put some downward pressure on the rack while tightening the screws.<br> <br> <br> Todd<br> <br> <div class="moz-cite-prefix">On 12/18/2023 6:48 PM, OlRivrRat wrote:<br> </div> <blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:12904BFF-3864-4E52-A4F6-5B0B101B7D73@comcast.net"> <pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap=""> I’m experiencing an Extremely Loud noise created by the center of the Luggage Rack lower front lip @ speeds above 70mph,,, Anyone else ever had this & is there an easy long term fix / or any long term fix aside from not driving that fast or removing the rack ~ ORR ~ DeanB </pre> </blockquote> <br> </body> </html> |
