A very annoying problem with the Renault Clio IV is the noises that mainly come from the front windows, between the deflector triangle and the window. The bar that holds the deflector (let's call it that) does not press sufficiently against the seal.

You need to place a spacer between the bar and the seal to stop it vibrating; a common window sealing sponge will suffice. Remove the bar, which comes off easily by hand (gently).

Apply the adhesive sponge and refit the plastic on the window. Very simple, and now the noise will be eliminated! A straightforward job that anyone can do.
