Roof rack whistles?


gerds

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I'm thinking of getting the Toyota branded roof racks non roof rail type so just wondering does anybody who has them on a KXR get roof rack whistle when going beyond 60km p/h? If you have a non Toyota branded what are they and do they whistle? Pics appreciated.

For the KXS and Grande owners do you have any whistle issues with roof rail type racks?

We have two KX-R's both with racks and no indication of a rattle, whistle etc.

Sorry I have not posted a picture as yet .

I will try and round to it.

Both myself and the other driver have not experienced any whistling so I don't know what you/they mean !

Both of us have travelled back and forwards to Brisbane quite a few times ( over 2500 klm of my 3100klm) and obviously highway driveing 100klm/hr plus and not experienced any probs.

My passengers have commented how quite the car is , so I don't know what else to say.

Cheers

Gary
