hmmm....close the windows? hehehe j/k. i guess i would make sure the rubber seal around the window's not cracked and makesure it's fitted nicely. you can run your fingers along the edges to make sure that the glass is flush against the rubber.

I have the same problem but I don't think its as simple as what you recommended. I think a window adjustment needs to be done. The rubber in my car is both flush and in good condition (no cracks) and I still get that noise on the driver side.

The First Generation TL Window Suck

Both of mine do the same thing. Id like to :yack: when I get at and over 40 MPH. It's like the seal is not tight enough. (Rubber seals are in prime condition too.) If anyone figures out how to fix, please let me (us) know. Thanks!

well the problem with the window visors is they require an outer seal we only have an inner one which is the reason this problem is happening

My front drivers side door won't shut completely sometimes. The seal is outta alignment or something. I asked my mechanic to look at it and he said nothin you can really do. Might have to buy new rubber seals?
