I'm anal about squeaks and rattles and had deflectors before that were noisy. How about these? Thanks.

There is a very low wind whistle from one of the back ones but its very low key. If you had the radio on you would not hear it, but I have very, very good hearing and rarely turn my radio on so yes, I can hear a little whistle.

Yes after a while it does squeak. I use wd/40 I thought it was because I use it a lot. I use mine everyday. I love it.

I did, but it caused them to squeak a little bit, as the sides rubbed. I took them apart and applied a little axle grease. Not a single squeak for over a year now. I think it's better to keep the chain from chafing the shoulders.

No, it's not loud. Most of what you hear is the slight rattle or clicking of the pedals as you pedal. This is because the pedals are slightly narrower than the axles and they slide sideways against the stops. If it squeaks just reverse the pedaling direction for a few revelations. It squeaks because the grease is balling up.

The squeaking is relatively normal. It should smooth out the more you use it, and subsequently squeak less. As for the .02mm increments, this is abnormal.

Yeah they make some noise unless you tie down the loose ends of the straps. I have had some problems w them coming a bit loose when I'm driving at high speeds so watch out

I always install them in an electronics closet so I didn't pay attention to a noise. However, I am actually going to install one today in about 4-5 hours. send me a follow up question and I will let you know if the one I installed has noise or not.

Great question, I didn't use them. By the way, this is a really nice hood. It works really well and is not loud. The only point I have about it is I cannot seem to figure out how to get the clock to read 12 hour time instead of a 24 hour clock(military time). That's a little annoying, other than that I think you'll be happy. Without the rubber mounts is doesn't rattle at all. Hope this helps.

With the "silencer" on its not unbearable. With it removed its LOUD AS HELL. Not even kidding. There are a decent amount of videos on youtube you can check out as well

I have both the standard and HD versions. And I have never had a rattle in them... Something is definitely wrong with it.

My frame squeaks because it is on hardwood flooring. I think it may have that "springy" sound if only on carpet. Honestly it's not bad at all. I sleep just fine on it. :)

I have found that most of my squeaks seem to come from the rubber pads on the footrests. I can adjust the position of my feet to eliminate most of the noise. Maybe you could try to wedge something thin in next to the pad and see if it helps any.

I have 4 of these on my 2004 f-250 diesel and I haven't heard them rattle at all. Although my engine isn't whisper quiet.

They do but you're not gonna like the noise they make. it looks nice dropped but not worth the annoying squeak in my opinion

I agree! It rattles really bad because the ball mount don't fit snugg. Really weird! Let me know if you find one!

Mine only rattles if it's not snapped down all the way. As long as the two side pegs are seated completely when down it is quiet.

Nothing noticeable. It's on a plastic glide, so there isn't much there to make noise. You should keep them clean because if they get a build up of dirt or dust on the slider it could make noise from the grit, but that's not really a concern for most people.
