Vinalero is on a distinguished road
<------- Got Owned real hard.

Just back from garage, got my rear brakes changed and emergency brake tighted. The mecanic and me checked everything that could possibly make that freakin noise. I got my 4 wheels rebalanced, even though they were terribly unbalanced, it wasn't it. Did a little road test to find that it was doin it again. Took it back on the lift, checked back, then got the car down and I flashed on the deflector on my hood...

Previously the day I first noticed the sound, I went to an automated carwash and under the blower to dry the car, wind caught the deflector that almost came at a square angle with the car. I didn't really put a lot of attention to it because it was still there and didn't break. But the 2 outside pins of the deflector that hold him on the hood are not there anymore and it's really possible that at a higher speed, the wind makes him clap rapidly with the hood.

I'm not sure it's really that, but it seems it could be a really plausible solution.
