wind noise?

Hi guys,
Not sure if this is normal at high speed, but once my car hit 60mph or more, I am starting to get wind noise. I thought the TLX is suppose to be quiet, or is it only at low speed? Does this happen to anyone?

No wind noise at all up to 90 mph (haven't been above that). I recall other posts on this subject and it seems the dealer fixed the problem,

Last time I had this "issue" I didn't have my sunroof completely closed. It was about 1/32 of an inch from fully closed.

Then it's not normal. I've run mine well above posted and don't notice any wind noise at all.

If its windy outside, the car is noisy from wind noise. Sound proofing is only in the floor.

My car is very quiet, no wind noise for me. I'd look to the weather stripping/gasket between the drivers door and rear door. Or some other weather stripping that might have come loose.

I had a previous vehicle that was exhibiting wind noise and when the dealer tried to make it better (played with door alignment etc.)....It made it 10 times worse. Just be careful before you go down that route.

Especially if you just had an oil change and the shop did not replace the panel on the bottom of the car. Even dealerships are doing this.

I do afraid of that, but its bugging me a little bit. Let see what they will say/done. I also brought it in for the lagging from R to D, and the backup camera sometimes doesn't turn on in R until like 5-8 seconds later.

Let me clarify. I only hear wind noise if it is windy. Where the aerodynamics no longer apply.

I don't know how its sound when it windy outside, haven't been windy here lately. For sure there are wind noises around the windshield and the door when driving at high speed. Not a lot comparing to my '13 Accord, but it is there. I took my car back from the dealer cause I found out they haven't even touch the car since last Friday. Going to a different dealership some other time =\ Also found out my transmission is acting up too. It slow to downshift so it jerking when come to a stop.
