Weird vibration

[TTO5]

2010 lx570. Getting a weird rumble vibration I think from the roof rack crossbars. I moved both of them to the rear. Anything over 70mph in the wind with rain sets up the vibration. Anyone go through this?

Maybe get some painters tape and do some tests on specific areas? I assume you’ve checked for loose parts and trim. I found a vibrating bracket on my Subaru Outback with painters tape experimenting.

Also try another few inches distance between the bars.

Are the cross bars easy to remove?

Are the cross bars easy to remove?

Yes. Pry the rear end caps off the roof rails.

To pry off the rear caps as @tbisaacs says, carefully use a trim tool or thin screwdriver to pry the caps back. Once the clip at the front releases, you can lift them off.

Make sure the cross bars are installed correctly. If not they will Make noise.

What is the correct way?

There is an arrow molded into them to show which direction they face.
