Wind noise

DaveA · 12-14-2020, 02:28 PM

Has anybody noticed a wind noise on the driver’s side on their 1-er…

Possibly sounding something like the door is not not sealed/closed properly… even through door and windows are closed properly...

Not really Dave I don't think no. Is the mirror cap on 100% correct that side?

Not my car, so I cannot check at the moment (covid rules etc) but am trying to get to the bottom of what they might be hearing (assuming it is not a door seal or something obvious)... I don't recall hearing/noticing anything when I did a test drive...

I have not had that issue before. Just wondering if it could be the door/window seals

Yes! Mine does the same. It does it from the day I picked it up.

I have inspected all seals for cracks or bad installation. All seem to be OK.

Any news on this from your side?
