370Z QUIETER than Mercedes GL350 :) (and a Hi from Tamz)
Hi all,
Boy do I miss being able to say I had a 370Z. As you know I had to trade in my Z last month when my H2 broke down I know some of us thought our Z's were a bit on the noisy side but I just thought I'd pop in here and tell you that I sure miss how "noisy" my Z was...because at least I EXPECTED it to be noisy (wide tires, low to the ground..) But I sure didn't have the WIND NOISE in that Z that I do in this GL. I've been going crazy for 5 weeks trying to determine what the issue is, as any other GL I've driven (and our friends '10 GL) has basically ZERO noise. I'm the lucky winner of the worlds loudest GL...they put Run Flats on the thing, which ride pretty terrible (I think the Z rode better!). I'm hoping to get new tires and wheels on it soon. And I apparently have a faulty windshield, as there is more wind coming into my car than there is outside of the car. I'm including a video to share this "wonderful" noise I get to listen to in the new Mercedes. I think I'd just about give anything to listen to my "Z's" noise again I wasn't expecting this in a Mercedes, that touts their GL interior to be nearly as silent as their S-classes. Hmmm...(especially on a $70K car!) So it's going into the shop tomorrow, to hopefully be fixed. Just thought I'd pop in here and remind everyone to enjoy their Z's for me. I sure miss my baby. (and miss this forum too!) I feel a little like a cheater, as I had to find an MB forum to ask a few questions about this wind noise, before I took it to the dealer and went bat-$hit on them about it. (I have already brought it to their attention when I had to bring it in after 2 weeks of owning it for the engine light coming on. Bad NOX sensor, apparently. They told me they couldn't hear it?!?) Here's my new "quiet" Mercedes Benz:
