| Something flapping Some days, not always, when I hit the motorway and drive at about 130 - 140 kph, maybe when it is a bit windy, I hear something flapping at the front. It sounds as if a rubber hose was slapping the body somewhere in front of the windscreen or something made from rubber flapping in the engine bay and hitting something. Only at those speeds. It is not very loud, but strange. Any ideas what it could be or have you heard anything similar? Could it be the wipers? On some days it does not happen at all. I suspect a bit that it may be when I drive against the wind. Yesterday when I was driving west and it was a west headwind, it did it all the time, on the way back to the east nothing.

| Re: Something flapping
the sound is much more muffled, coming from outside, not inside

| Re: Something flapping There's no undertrays but it could be the liner between the wheelarch and the engine bay that has come loose.
