Guys,
I noticed the same noise yesterday for the first time, driving solo with stereo off. Can't hear it with stereo on. No visible movement of windscreen when pressure is applied. Car was manufactured late 09/16 and has 9,500km.
I'd rather not have to go through the hassle of demonstrating the issue to Holden Service or getting the windscreen cut and refit, especially if a simple lube job will silence the creaking for good.
So to those who've done the lube job themselves, is it just a case of pulling back the outer rubber seal at the top horizontal edge of the windscreen (refer attached pic) and spraying behind that with lube?
And how much lube should be sprayed in? Flood it, or just lube it as if you were lubing a hinge?
A question also to Ausroamer, I also prefer the Lanox lanolin product as the lanolin won't evaporate, whereas the delivery medium in some silicon lube sprays can actually dry out rubber over time. This could slowly aggravate the problem (assuming the inner seal is actually rubber). But lanolin has it's own distinctive smell (that does dissipate over time). So...
Did you notice the lanolin smell in the cabin after spraying? And,
For how long did the lanolin silence the creaking?
