2017 C Cabriolet
C Cabriolet Wind Noise

I replaced a 2014 E cabriolet with a 2017 C cabriolet. The car is beautiful but there is an annoying wind/road noise with the top up. I am tall and have the seat positioned all the way back. There is a constant wind/road noise in my left ear. If I move my head forward a few inches, I do not hear the noise. If I hold my left hand up in the right poistion, it blocks the noise completely. Anybody else notice this problem?

I have a 2017 C63s Cab and it is super quiet with the top up. I am surprised how quiet it is. Maybe go to the dealer and test drive another to compare.

2017 C Cabriolet
Thanks for the reply! Glad to know it is not present on all cars so hopefully can be fixed. However, prior to buying the car, I test drove one at another dealer, and it had the same problem. My E cabriolet was tototally quiet, almost like a sedan. Have been a bit disappointed that the C has not been as quiet.

Yes ... I have a 2014 e350 cabriolet with wind noise on the left side (at highway speeds) behind my head. I've made an appointment at the dealer to have them diagnose the matter. When I press on the rear window (outward while driving) the noise stops. Stay tuned ....

I have fixed this issue. It is actually not the window itself although that is mercedes fix. The issue is an opening from the doorcard to the door:
