I wonder if other Murano owners have noted a distinct "wind" noise in the windshield area at speeds of 40-45 mph and up. Am finding that the dealer and Nissan wishes to imply that this is normal, but I cannot imagine that others would not find this objectionable!

re: wind noise
I don't necessarily notice any excessive windshield wind noise with all windows closed. I do think that the sunroof (when open) has excessive wind noise (my Volvo's sunroof is relatively quiet at hiway speeds), but this is likely due to the sloping angle of the roofline. I don't have the wind deflector, but would expect this would help reduce sunroof noise.

I can't say that I have objectionable wind noise. I've had MO up to 90 and all I heard was puuuuuurrrrrrrrrrr, no wind leaks.

THe wind noise that I experience does not seem to be related to the sunroof. This problem occurs with a closed sunroof (equipped with deflector). The dealer plans to install a new tape around windshield in hopes of minimizing this noise. I'm happy to hear that others do not have this problem, as this gives me ammunition in dealing with the problem and the dealer.
Speed govenor
Anyone know what the govenor is and how it works (so that it may be disengaged)? Anyone try it? Not that I plan on driving my MO over any speed limit. Any such high speed runs will, of course, take place in a controlled environment for experimental purposes only!

My understanding is that the ECU monitors the speed and once it reaches the preset limit it cut off the engine..............believe me, it is sa terrible feeling (done it on a different car.....)
So if one had access to computer code it should be possible to change this number to whatever one wants......

I just got a 2003 Murano. I have a very minor amount of wind noise occasionally at around 45 - 50. The wind seems to have to be blowing just right against my car though since it's not constant. I hardly notice it since this car is far quieter than my last car or my wife's car. I hope that doesn't change as the miles go on.

Has there been any resolution to this wind noise issue. I too have a wind noise coming from the lower drivers side portion of the windshield on my 05 Murano when travelling at 100K or better. I have had it in to the Dealer once with no success. I am considering requesting another test drive to see if this condition was evident on other Muranos.

I too have had wind noise seemingly from the front passenger side. It happens at highway speed and only with a head wind that tries to push the vehicle to the left slightly. I sound like a vibration to me, very slight but noticeable.
