whats your experience? are some of yours quiet? i have a few months of warranty left so figure i might as well ask them about it.

thanks
Mine is basically brand new... around 2600 miles. The windows clip the top when opening the doors, when new they did not. So, there's some type of movement, stretching going on (opening the door and letting the window index stops this). As far as noises, yep..from day one. I have to go through this car with the same process as my previous one. Silicone on rubber seals, flocking tape at misc. plastic areas. lube and Velcro at latching pins. Not that I intentionally drive with the top up, but those noises drive me nuts. Personally, I wouldn't have the dealer touch my top. I just don't think they'll take the time or make the effort to do it right ...or there will be collateral damage from their work.

The top up wind noise, creaks etc. will never be perfect, but I accept that.
