I have about 600 miles on my LE Gladiator. I did not notice any noise from the engine compartment initially but since installing the all-weather mats with the drain plug I am noticing a somewhat loud whooshing noise when revving and driving around town and sometimes whistle like an SC that seems to be coming in through the drain plug. This normal? Anyone else noticed more noise with the drain ports from the all-weather mats?

Haven't had that problem. I do know that if you don't put the plug in, you will hear all of the noises from underneath and feel all of the wind and temperature from underneath and outside the vehicle. It will drive you nuts! lol
