Hello listees, When entering the wake of a Semi Truck while a cross wind is present, I hear the following: whap whap whap WHAP SLAM! It sounds like I've got a blow out or launched a rock into the rear wheel well. Only thing I can figure is that it must be the rear air vents getting back pressured. Does anybody else experience this? Is there supposed to be some dampening mechanism in there? Startles me and my passengers. This is becoming a common problem since the primary purpose for my van is to get me and my windsurgfing gear to the windiest place I can find. Thanks for any input, Vernon '90 Vanagon (no GL) |
