Wind buffeting at highway speeds

Hi all,

I just bought a 2014 Sequoia SR5 last week...loving the truck so far. One thing I'm concerned about is the wind turbulence at speeds above 70 with the windows up. I have sensitive ears and it's making me car sick. Anyone having this problem? I'm thinking about getting some wind deflectors for the windows to reduce it but is that going to do me any good? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

 

It's a non-aerodynamic brick....it's going to have wind noise.

 

Aerodynamics is equal parts of science and dumb luck.

 

Are you sure the sound vibration disturbance thingy you don't like is coming from window area?
If you want the vent shades on windows anyway, you may as well see if they help

Do you have crossbar on roof rails? My 4Runner had a horrid thumping in my ears from the front crossbar. A few twists of rope around it to alter airflow fixed that.

I know that airflow around side mirrors on most vehicles can affect feel/sound when windows are down so might affect when windows closed too i guess. You could temporarily tape something on back of mirror and see what happens. Like maybe a 6 inch long piece of paracord taped horizontally on back of mirror wrapping to outside edge. Maybe even just tape with a wrinkle in it. Just enough to change airflow even slightly. It's a trial and error experiment to see what makes a difference, if anything. Once the cheap tape or rope finds the right spot, you can look for canards or something to stick in the right place if you want. Or... maybe the window things will fix it. Let us know how it goes
