    Air deflector(Sunroof)

    Is there any C4/C4S driver having a air deflector made of plastic?There must have been a change in the construction of the sunroof.

    Re: Air deflector(Sunroof)

    Mine's a C2S but it's an 06 model and yes it is different than an 05.
    There is indeed a small plastic air deflector with holes all along the strip.
    There is a little bit of turbulence but it's really minimal.
    I like the feel you get with open roof and windows, not quite my old 996 cab but pretty good!

    Re: Air deflector(Sunroof)

    Thanks!
    There is a bad noise between 40-50 km/h with the old metal type-very bad.Do you think it could be changed with the newer one?

    Re: Air deflector(Sunroof)

    I really don't know. Ask your dealer. Sorry.

    Re: Air deflector(Sunroof)

    While we're on the subject. I made a solid rubber piece aprox 3/4 x 1 x 2 inches (mm?). Put it on a yellow string (to not forget it's there).

    I use it to shove between the roof lip and the deflector to keep the deflector DOWN when the sun roof is open. It lessens NOISE considerably (try it with your hand). Of course at certain speeds it gets freaky annoying. But you figure that out and open a window a bit it'll go away.

    The absence of the NOISE is worth permanently removing that suckka, like I did on my E46 BMW sunroof.

    Haha - thanks!

    You are talking about the turbulence noise, right? or are you being bothered by some other kind of noise?

    Re: Air deflector(Sunroof)

    Yes, I'm talking about the turbulence noise. I tried to put the deflector down, the noise gets much louder in every range of speed.

    Hummmmm, that doesn't sound right. Mine gets more comfortable and quieter when holding down the deflector (except at certain specific speeds when it gets that weird buffeting).

    You do know the sunroof goes back and then stops and THEN you can press the button AGAIN and it will go back more.

    Things should get quieter when you hold the deflector down.
