Loud Radio?

j/k

Check the window alignment. Sometimes it can be a bit off and tilted out of alignment allowing wind noise.

I have never done the adjustment before. There are a couple of different adjustments available.

I had the same problem, took it to the dealership and they told me it was regular road noise and they could do nothing about it. #1 make sure that your top is seated correctly(all weather striping is laying correctly). #2 if the top is on right then try tipping in your windows, try this link http://www.johndennington.com/
