Spontaneous wind flapping sound in cabin
Every once in a while regardless of speed, I can start to hear a lound wind flapping sound inside the cabin. Its the same soud as when you only have two windows open. I have no idea what it could be and is starting to drive me nuts. I haven't taken it to the dealer yet because of the spontaneous nature of the sound and not being able to reproduce on command. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

I think the noise your describing is produced as a result of differential air pressure in the cabin from the open window (s).
To resolve the problem readjust window opening slightly or open or close a 2nd window. If the noise disappears, you solved the mystery.

I wish it were that easy. All windows/sunroof are closed.
