Hey guys - a couple issues I've noticed on my '01 recently that have been bugging me.
1. Driver's door wind noise. It's REALLY bad. I just did a 500 mile round trip, and it was unbearably loud on the highway, especially above 60 and if the wind hits it the right way (so sometimes it would get really, REALLY loud). I've been googling around, can't seem to find a good solution to this, but I need to address it. Just take it to the body shop? The door seems to sag a little so I'm betting its off its tolerances a bit. Anything else to check?
2. A little more innocuous... I'd been hearing a strange rattling on the highway, which sounded both wind and bump related. Finally narrowed it down to the sunroof. Looks like the pop-up wind deflector thing is broken on each side. The plastic tabs that hold it down are snapped off near the rivets, so they were just bouncing around up there. I could just replace the part, but they're riveted on... how do I replace them?
