2008 buzzing noise
I have an 08 coupe. At certain times I hear a buzzing sound from the passenger side dash board. Cold weather makes it worse and it gets louder with speed. Any body have experience with this? Any fixes?

Open your hood and look at the bottom of the windshield. There is a rubber edge molding across the windshield that might not be sitting flush onto the windshield. Do a test: Put masking tape over the rubber edge and on the windshield to seal any opening and test drive. If the noise disappears you need to replace the cowl or some have used silicone caulk between the cowl edge and windshield.

I have this same noise, It sound like it is comming from the front center speaker in the dash. It is alot louder with the muffler in the open position. Does not sound like it is comming from the outside of the car. I need to try and correct as now it is really loud.

I used about five well placed dabs of black RVT. Just pried up the top of the cowl with a screwdriver and squeezed a drop in and moved over ten inches and did another. This stopped it.
A couple of weeks later when Safelite replaced my windshield I told them about my fix.
Since they had the cowl off, they applied 3M tape and stuck it to the glass.
That stuff will never come off.
