2018 Sunroof noise?
how much sunroof noise do u get when driving around 80 mph? whenever im on the highway driving the '18 q7, it makes too much noise that i just close it. or maybe its the wind thats hitting the sunroof deflector and the wind coming inside. i only open the sunroof at low speeds.
im currently driving an a4 loaner and the opened sunroof is quite at highway speeds

The interior of the Q is very noisy at any speed with the windows down or the roof open. I love to drive with windows down and the roof open, but the Q makes it impossible. The large volume of air that get trapped in the car causes all kinds of pressure and noise issues, making it very unpleasant. I just keep them all closed unless going <30mph

The trick to noise reduction is to crack your rear windows with the sunroof open (I would also make sure all the shades are recessed) (you may need to crack the driver/passenger as well and how much may depend on how fast you're driving and how open the sunroof is, sometimes I've found in other vehicles opening the sunroof say 90% to be better than 100%)
You'll still get wind noise (obviously) but the juddering should dissipate.

closing the sunshade helps as well

That's why I miss the "elephant" third row windows that I had in GL. They would allow for the flow of air out of the vehicle all the way in the back and reduced the back pressure in the cabin.
