yeah but I would never had guessed that it was caused by that.now that I think about it, the noise comes from the side that the deflector has a chip in it

sure...an aftermarket shield causes turbulence that can make the weatherstrips flap

I've never heard this noise and I have a bug deflector... however my wipers seem to make a whistling noise.

Its a no win situation for me, its either the wind hitting the windshield funny and making weird noises with the bug guard on, or the mirrors (or Ventshades) that whistle with the bug guard off.
