Squeaky roof

We just bought a 2006 Class C Winnebago and we love it except that the roof squeaks when you are going down the road. Sounds like rubber on rubber. Any suggestions for how to fix this problem.

  • I could even feel air coming in through this area at highway speeds and wondered if it could be related to the squeaking noise. That's when I started researching RV.Net and came across fixes for the problem. It really wasn't that hard to fix. Took me maybe 3-4 hours and I'm a slow worker.
  • I think you are right. That sounds like exactly what it could be. It is going back to the dealer next Monday to have a backup camera put in and we will have them check it since it is under a 60 day warranty.
  • Could be the cabover where it mounts to the van top. Ours was squeaking almost continuously and I took that area apart and found that most of the rivets had broken. Replaced them with machine screws with nylon nuts and the squeaking went away.
  • Check your air conditioner mounting bolts, they should be snug. If loose it could be causing the rubber gasket under the A/C to move.
