Is it me or with the colder weather does the car get noisier? I have this really annoying buzz that sorta comes and goes located directly next to my left ear, at about the spot where the door, window, chassis, and soft top all meet. I have absolutely no idea what it is, and I know a soft top is bound to have a few noises here and there... but its one of those sounds thats juuuuust audible over my music in the car. It buzzes with bass and comes and goes with seemingly no pattern whatsoever.


I was wondering if anyone else in town had similar issues. The car is still under warranty and I'm thinking of having it checked out... but I have a feeling the folks at the dealership would look at me like I'm paranoid. Just like they did with the weird wailing sound that my A/C unit makes during summer.

 

the top is noticablly louder in the cold weather.

it's just the seals, methinks. they aren't as plyable in the colder weather.

 

yes my softtop is always noisier in the cold weather. I think it's normal as well, with the material being not as soft.

 

are you sure it's not the seat rubbing agianst the back part.

 

Positive its not the seat. I dont put the seat all the way back and have it reclined like a lot of drivers I know... I cant get used to that kind of seating position. Plus I've heard from other S2000 owners that it wears out the leather on the back of the head rest. Guess the cold is just making things noisy.

Does anyone notice these problems with a Hardtop? I am getting one soon and was thinking of just having it put on for the duration of the winter months. Just curious.
