CU2 Wind noise

[Sludge]

Is anyone else having a problem with wind noise at around 70kph?

My suspicion is it is coming from air channeling off the mirror on to the weather visor.

I don't seem to get it all the time and it comes on both sides of the car. At first it sounds like the window is not fully closed but moving it down then back up has no effect.

Any thoughts?

I haven't noticed it mate, the missus got the car today but I will take it for a spin later.

I thought of the same thing too the other day while driving and tried opening and closing the window. The wind noise seems louder than what I was expecting however I thought it was just me. Perhaps not...

Do you have a weather shield loki?

If so they usually generate some noise..

[loki78]

nope...no weather shield

This i haven't noticed yet .... But i will try it out when i get a chance as i drove the Old V6 today...

So the noise happens with or without the weather shields....

Will let ya's know..

Do you find any improvement if you put the front window/s down about 1mm?

Not really, in fact I get more noise.

Might be my imagination but it seems to happen on windy days. I have a service next month and I will get it checked, I am just a bit concerned that the window is not seating properly when it closes.

Does anyone know if they muck around with them when you have tint applied?

Not too sure about that as i dont believe they would go through that much hassle to remove anything around the window or door frame to put the tinting on. I've only seen them put the tint on once but a few years ago... and they dont disassemble any part of the door or window rubber seals...

Unless its been changed...

ye Euro CU2 is right, they don't take apart the window from the frame at all, its just straight onto the car. I heard wind noise the other day aswell, but my first suspect was the sunroof since it was the only glass i opened as my tinting was fresh on the windows

I get some wind noise (CL9) if there are some side wind

I'd say the wind noise is to do with the size of our rear view mirrors.
