I have a 95 Avalon XLS that has a lot of noise from the wind. I think it is no only around to moon roof but the windows as well. Any ideas how to reduce the noise?

Also have a 1999 Avalon that the BRAKE light keeps coming on. Brake fluid OK and the owners manual says it is for the parking brake, which is off. Any suggestions?

for '95 Avalon. I believe the dealer has a fix for the noise.

'99 Avalon: check brake pads. Probably worn.

There is indeed a dealer fix for this, and in fact,there was a service bulletin about it. Since it wasn't a safety-related problem, dealers weren't required to notify us about it, and didn't fix it unless we complained. I think the service bulletin number was: B0010-97. When mine was fixed, my '95 had 106841 miles on it and was 5 years old, and the dealer (Miller Toyota in Manassas) wasn't going to fix it, due to mileage and vehicle age, but did so after I leaned on the manager, saying that it was the moral thing to do. There ARE some decent dealers out there, folks! There was extensive weather-stripping replacement done on windows AND windshield, and it really DID make a difference.
