Excess wind noise on driver side

Cowher36 · 01-14-2017, 08:41 AM

Sounds like it is coming from the rear side window. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Thanks in advance.

I hear it. Interested if anyone else has. I was used to a noisy drive on my 5th gen, where it always sounded like a window was open, but I agree, there seems to be a special cause noise coming from right behind my left ear.

check your rubber seal on small rear window, found mine folded somewhat and had to tuck it back in place then put up window and let sit for a while. all good now.

Do you by any chance have a pic of where you are referring? Are you talking about the seal that goes between the two windows or the seal on the top the window goes into?

Mine does this too.

Its where the weatherstripping tucks into the top frame, I noticed mine was half coming out and twisted a bit. Very noisy, after I tucked it back into place it was a lot better. I thought I was going to need to glue it but its holding up nicely. The passenger side was fine, that's how I noticed drivers side was out.

Does that weatherstrip just pull out and push in? And also, is the part that was twisted on yours at the top where the window meets the top, or at the back of that small window?

It was at the top of the small window, it will push back into place.
