Wind noise
Coming from a D5, I notice considerably more wind noise at speed from around the windscreen pillar area on the Defender.
Has anyone noticed this? Any ways to improve?
Thanks in advance.

Known issue - there’s a TSB that your dealer should know about by now. I’m surprised it’s still appearing 2 years into production and a redesign of the plastic trim piece on the A pillar Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!

Coming from a proper Defender I haven't noticed especially with roofrack fitted. Laughing

What speeds are we talking about here.

My Defender TD5 cruises at around 60mph and is flat out at 85mph (where legal) At maximum speed it's difficult to hear the stereo, or the passenger, so l guess it's all relative.
