anyone notice wind noise drivers rear area?

i searched and didnt find anything. seems like a minor amount of wind noise with the windows UP. it SEEMS like it might be coming just behind my left ear around the top of the passenger rear window area..... cracking the windows and then closing them seems to have no benifitical effect on the noise when the window is closed again.

I have it as well. Additionally the passenger side mirror whistles, annoying.

I get this a lot if I had chilli for lunch.


Seriously though, it's not poor weather-sealing. It's more likely the turbulence around the outside rear view mirror.

I noticed the drivers side mirror made wind noise (MY2009) and drove the 2010 model a couple of weeks ago with the new wing mirrors and didnt notice any wind noise.

Yes for wind noise and whistle noise. I was a little disappointed with this but life goes on. I keep thinking my kids are not shutting the doors all the way or leaving the windows cracked.

I had this problem one month after purchase. Dealer replaced the molding and the noise never returned.

I have the noise issue also and periodically check whether my windows are up. What molding are you speaking of...?

I noticed I have this problem too, but I'll just leave it since if I take it in for repair, dealer will mess up something else
