So i got the OEM roof rack from toyota and put it on my 2025 trd sport and had the TSB done where they replace the bumpers/spacers for the vibration noise but the wind noise still seems pretty bad. Is this normal for these racks or is there some other adjustment i can do to make the wind noise better? Thanks in advance

The TSB had nothing to do with the wind noise.. it was designed to stop the rack from vibrating at speed. Drive 65 mph and stick your hand out the window.. you’re going to get wind noise. Same with a rack that is sticking up on your roof

My entire roof would crazy vibrate at speeds above 65pmh, but since the dealership installed the new Toyota OEM spacers, there is zero vibration now. Wind noise though, of course, it's a roof rack and they are not especially wind resistant.

Pretty much anything that is attached to any vehicle that disrupts the vehicles natural air flow will create noise. Some racks are quieter than others. I installed a nitrous bottle on my sound system. Don’t hear anything but music
