Yup! Usually at the high 70's and with more wind like when passing a truck. Also more when it's colder. Sounds like it is coming from the top. This is after about 2 1/2 years, not from new. I'll be watching for replies.

I seem to remember several members saying that the windshield mounting clips were the culprits. They loosen up over time. I don't recall exactly what the sound was that it made, but it may be the same thing.

Funny this should be coming up now. I just got back from a road trip, my first in my new 2004 tundra 1450 miles. I was passing a truck at about 70 or so and i heard this noise coming from the windshield and thought it was very small stones or something. It did sound like poping

This was also after about 3 hours of driving and it was colder out.

I will have to try to reproduce this noise.

My windshield just broke a couple weeks ago. No real warning. I was in a storm in Charlotte, NC. I had scraped enough snow off the windshield to be able to drive. I had the defroster on, and I heard a crack. The windshield cracked all the way across about 4 inches from the bottom. I guess it was from the temperature differential between the piled up snow, and the heater.

I've had my Tundra for almost 2 1/2 years. I haven't had that problem with the windshield making noise.
