Wind Noise at Front Driver Window Side

DO you guys have that problem too? When I drive at high speeds I get a whistling sound on the driver side. Does anyone know what i can do to fix this?

i hear it once and a while ... it is because on our cars we dont have door pillars (metal thing that guides window) so allwe have is a seal so air can actually get through there... also if you press it, it will increase the loudness...prevention: turn radio up so yuo cant hear it

I talked to my service advisor last time I was in about it. It has something to do with the alignment. I will ask them to address it next time I come in.

Also, I have scratches on my window, now, Driver's side.

I saw bot the above in a Technical Bulletin from Acura. So, yeah, people have been complaining about it.

hey unx979, i have the same problem with my windows; the scratches and slow roll up. i have 165k, so you know warranty won't help. how much would it cost to fix these f*cking things anyway? is it the motor that causes the slow roll or just the thing that scratches the windows?

are these permanent scratches or are they just smudges?
I bought mine used but i purchased an extended warranty to cover 3 years.
