Has anyone else noticed the amount of outside noise? I was on the highway and the wind noise was really bad. I was looking to see if one of the windows were down. Are they all this bad or is this what you should expect out of a 30k car? But the power was SWEET! Charles

 

The two I test drove were really quiet at highway speed. I couldn't believe how quiet they were.

maybe the car you tested had some of the exterior rubber sealing out of place or something it happens, and dealers usually arent smart enough to fix it

 

maxima's are very quiet cars until u add a CAI, Catback, & Ypipe, then you got yourself some NOISE!

 

No, like i said....it was very loud. The road noise wasnt bad on city streets, but on the highway it was horrible. Guess it was just the wind? Charles

 

Its those low profiles. Thats why I like drivng on tar roads, much quieter.

 

yup could be the tires, we never get good tires from the factory... 17"s can make alot of noise
and freshly paved tar roads they make my loud as$ POS Pirellis sound nice and quiet!!

 

yeah mine were all quiet too

 

Just turn up the stereo

 

FWIW, we drove a 2002 Altima and there was some of that white plastic stuck to the roof. You know the stuff they wrap the car in to protect the paint while it sits in the lot. It had started to peel back partially and made a gawd-awful noise at speed.

there is a 5 minute TSB... yet the new cars arent fixed/changed from my understanding.
