MR Roof Buffeting?

Was cruising down to lunch yesterday on I-95, doing about 85 mph. All the windows were partially down, i made the mistake of rolling up the fronts first (instead of the rears like i always do).

As soon as the fronts got up, the roof gave off an ungodly wind sound, and started flexin up and down in the rear. I'd never even heard of anything like this. I wasn't about to try it again, but i immediatly rolled up the rear windows, and all was cake.

Baffled the hell outta me, Anyone else get that?

the regular evo has bad aero too. when you put the rear windows down it sounds like all heck is going on.

That's crazy. I normally drive with the rear windows down and the front up to avoid all the wind nailing me in the face. I've never seen anything like this before.


I'll agree, the aerodynamics with the windows down are awful, but I've never had car parts flapping in the wind!

Same Noise I get in my MDX when the rear windows are down and the front is up.
