    Man....I have the exact same setup and it sounds like I'm flying in a small plane. Do you have the mysky roof? I wonder if the rack is interacting with the seams in the roof.

    I have the MySky roof and I agree, sounds like I'm about to fly away, so loud that if I were to drive 55 mph with the MySky roof open I wouldn't be able to hear anything...

    I was thinking about the Rola cargo basket as well. How do you like it?

    Hey burnt,
    Do you think it was loud because of the cargo basket or the cross bars? I wonder if setting the basket further back will make a difference with the amount of noise.

    I'm hoping it was the round bars. Ordering aero type cargo loc ones off Amazon tomorrow then an x-tray knockoff.

    Kinda hard to see, but my brother gave me his Yakima rack. He had it on his old Impreza. Fits nicely on the two inner mounts. Came with a bike mount, but I tend to not haul bicycles in the winter. so it is not on there. Now I gotta finagle together a cargo basket for the wee beastie.

    I was able to make my rack set up a little quieter by zip tying round foam pipe isulation to the cross bars....There are definitely weird air currents pushing down on the My Sky roof causing severe noise. The insulation makes it only slight better.

    Add Cargo Loc Crossbars with MySky...noise plus whistle is taking some getting used to. Hope my x-tray quiets it down.
