GLC 250D
Wind noise/turbulence

I'm posting here despite having a GLC as they have been more issues with the the W205 as the GLC is still new.

All I wanted to know is for the W205 has there been a firm bulletin or official dealer service protocol for a "solution" to the problem or for a "masking" the problem. I know of the acoustic glass.
I am based on South Africa and want some "proof" of that officially from MBUSA or MBUK etc.
My dealer said that although they acknowledge the problem even since the W204 they don't have a mandate from MBSA and offered to send the doors for adjustment which didn't solve the issue.

Thanks in advance.

The active thread for wind noise in W205 cars is "Official wind noice service bulletin." (The misspelling of "noice" is in the original.) You will find the full text of the German-language Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) for the W205, with an unofficial English-language translation. You will also find the reference number for the English-language TSB. (Nobody has come up with the text yet). However, your dealer will dismiss these TSBs as having nothing to do with your car (different part nos., etc.).

The thread that you started on the GLC forum is the appropriate thread for you. Someone may come up with the correst TSBs for you there. If you can, please terminate this thread. If you can't, please make a reply to your own comment, saying that you intend no further activity on this thread. Otherwise, abandoned threads act as honey-pots, attracting comments indefinitely.

Haha. I searched for wind "noise" in the w205 forum and due to misspelt threat title I couldn't find it.
Thanks. Mods can close this thread please
