winshield creak fixed
I have had my TSX now for 28XXX miles and have the dreaded windshield creak since 500 miles and my Acura dealer has not been able to fix. I did some investigative work this past weekend and this is what I found to be the solution.
Open your hood and notice where the windshield trim sweeps down into the engine compartment. Midway between driver side & passenger side just above the strut bar the two trim pieces meet and have a plastic button-like connector. Mine was not completely pushed all the way down and caused the trim to flex. It has been four days now without a sound and the weather has ranged from low 40's to low 60's. Anyway, this was my fix. I had also put some foam between the plastic trim pieces and the strut towers to keep the plastic from rubbing. Good luck with your fix.
