I need help diagnosing a noise that's coming from my windscreen area. It's something I've experienced for a few years but just recently was able to get a video of. I've attached links below. The only difference between the two is the length and POV. The noise is pretty evident, but it's best described as a crackling or vibrating/rattling sound. Give them a watch and let me know if you've experienced something similar or have any hypotheses.

I apologize in advance, my girlfriend was operating the camera and she was clearly loosing focus. As a result, the image is a little all-over the place!

I have same noise in my red. It's intermittent. I don't know what it is.

How do you get a "video" of a noise. ?

Check the setting on your air vent path on the climate control.
Re-circulate air or outside air?
Ever had your windshield replaced?

Check the clip in the middle of the cowl at the bottom of the windshield. Mine was out of the slot and was rattling.

Got that same rattle in my first Citrus. I'll take a look at that clip you mentioned.

Thanks,
Tim

I checked out the middle clip talonmike mentioned with a friend. The clip was locked in the grommet but my friend remembered that it still has enough "play" to vibrate during driving. We found a way to temporarily stop it but I'll probably just buy the parts to replace them. (Component: Hood, Illust #18 and #19) Thanks talonmike!
