I have really bad wind noise too. Especially at higher speeds. 60mph+

Would it just be the aerodynamics of our car?

I've been getting wind noise out of the front of the door for months. Getting around to playdoughing it to be certian, but my bat like hearing tells me it'* there.

I think most of it is caused by the front doors and where they meet with the windshield. It isn't flush.

There are a lot of channels too, like the water tracts on top.

Cold weather won't be helping much either.

Gordy has been replacing all these pieces. Any word from him whether it improved anything? I know mine is a little worse than last year.

I get some wind noise from the front right door. The funny part is, the warranty records DethRat found for me shows that door has been adjusted under warranty like 4 times. I even added some extra weaher stripping to no avail.

And so far, I can't get anybody in that seat with enough sense to help me narrow it down...

I'll help you out MOS!!! Oh wait I don't have any sense. Didn't someone talk about putting a bead of silicone in the doors, and that helped?
