Wind noise after windshield replacement
I recently replaced my windshield in one of the workshops in Wakra for my Toyota Landcruiser but after the replacement i started to get heavy wind noise from the area of the wind shield. Is there any good place with professionals who can help to fix the same?.
Thanks in advance.
@Molten Metal: Noted Sir, big thanks.
Sree, When we disturb the factory fittings ...... there is chance for getting lower quality fixings ...... but you please follow up with the mechanics & their boss to rectify the sound issue ......... be serious when having a talk with them , show some degree of anger ........ do NOT smile in front of them ........
Thanks all for your kind advises.....will follow the same.
Nano, There is no doubt about it ............................ ..................
@Molten Metal:- When i bought the car it had a big crack on the glass since it looked ugly i replaced it.
accha baccha is really accha baccha
Replacing a windshield is not such a specialized job that one needs to go to the agent. It is a known fact that all car agents fleece you. While installing the windshield, you may have noticed the workshop people using silicone sealant during the process of installation. I guess that at some point less quantity of the sealant was applied or was not applied at all at that place, hence the air flow. Correcting the situation may require the windshield to be removed completely and the gap refilled. Be present while they are carrying this out, as I fear there may be some damages to the windscreen while there may not be any if the workshop people are careful and carry out the work properly.
go to toyota service center in wakrah which is near to mandarin

They may 've used the cheap gasket, don't leave them easily untill you are fully satisfied. Don't listen to their excuses ..... Agree with Accha ................. Mon, 29.02.2016, 08.54 hrs
You pay peanuts you get monkeys....
Why don't you approach Toyota service center for a professional work. Bit pricy but you will have peace of mind.
It has simply not been fixed properly. Take it back to the workshop and let them have a look at it. Take the workshop people with you on a drive and let them hear the sound. They may have to replace the entire windshield once again. Hold on to the invoice should they try to somehow slip out of their responsibilities.
Yes boss....the front windshield was replaced after the glass was hit by a stone and it got cracked.
Is it the front .... main wind shield ? ............... Mon, 29.02.2016, 08.33 hrs
