Hassle them until they fix it.

Just had O'Brien's fit a new screen to my D3 after a D4 with GG's flicked a stone out of it's tread coming into Ferntree Gully a couple of weekends back!
Now I have a bad whistle above 80kph at the left hand side of the screen looking out.
Any ideas would be helpful, I have checked that the pillar cover is fixed correctly.

Obrien's give a warranty. If it's not right they should fix it at no cost to you ( to repair it correctly they should remove the screen, not just put some more urethane around the edge )

Hello Guys
The whistle is outside, I think it's the trim or something!

Re wind noise and the like, if I think I know maybe where the noise is coming from, perhaps a crack or seam, sometimes I will tape up the area with black electrical tape just to see if the noise changes. If not, I keep adding tape.
If the noise level decreases, I at least know that I am in the right area so I start removing lengths of the tape until the noise reappears.

I only ask as my cover had a bit of a rattle and a slight whistle so I pulled it off and fitted a set of new clips - problem solved !!!!
Did O'briens use new clips ?
Hope you get it sorted - little "rattles/whistles" etc are a pain in the proverbial....
cheers

I had O'Brien's out today and they replaced a clip that was missing, also added more of that black stuff.
The wierd sound is still there.
I will try that electrical tape thing and I should be able to isolate it and then get O'Brien's back again.
Thanks guy's!
Cheers Michael

You can also get whistles and rattles from missing or broken clips on the A pillar plastic trim. These have to be removed to fit the new windscreen and are easy to break.
I had the same issue, Pacific Landrover just removed the trim and fitted new clips. Problem Solved

I will get it sorted now.
