    Default Visor noise in KW T660

    Anyone know of a fix for the extremely loud wind whisle noise you get w/ the new Kenworth T660. The other day it was so loud in a cross wind I didn't hear a med unit next to me. Thanks Chris

    Hey, I just got a KW T660 last week too. It has that same wind noise. It was so loud in Wyoming, that I had to crank up the stereo to block it out. I am at home for a couple days and will look closer to see what it might be. I'll let you know if I find out what it is.

    You need to have the windshield seal checked. If you use a water hose and spray up along the top of the seal, you can find out if the seal is bad quick and cheap.

    Over the years, bad windshield seals have been an issue from PACCAR...Pete's or KW's. A full stream from a garden hose shows where the seal is bad.

    Mine makes the same noise. (its a 08) But I can only hear it with the windows open... I just had my seal replaced it leaked like crazy and if I was sitting and it was raining it would pool up in the upper dash till i moved. Then it was a waterfall all over my dash, radio switches/gauges.... The windshield seal shrunk causing the water to drip down the inside of the windshield. And it was a mix of the factory xm ant and the visor lights grommet leaking in the roof.

    But for the life of me i cant figure out the wind whistle.
