I am just wondering if anyone else has "air noise" coming from their back drivers side door?

I can hear air coming from the door/window when I am driving. I took the car back to the dealership a week after I got it and they told me that it was just wind noise... It is coming from one door only and I can't feel any air.

Plus, I can hear it city driving when there is no wind... so that's a load of crap.

Also, has anyone encountered their drivers window clip breaking? When I roll down my window it sounds like my window will break, my boyfriend said that the clip is broken. You can basically pull the window out of the door.

I am trying to get an appointment to go back and get that fixed.. Does anyone know if that is covered by warranty?

Hah, okay, my car is cursed.. But what can you do.

I was flipping out the other day, opening and closing my rear passenger window because it sounded like wind was leaking in. Opened and closed the door too, all to no avail.

It's weird.

maybe you tried to use a water hose and poured water at the gap of your rear door for maybe a minute, than open the and check is there water leaking through the seal. if yes than i thinks that is the portion you referral to. Air Leaking.

This method are very effective for checking leak.

Another method also often apply, are using wax to apply at the door seal, than you close the door very lightiy, han you open the door and the aera of the seal contact. if you can see any portion of the seal contact aera with no wax contact than probably that is the portion air leak in from there.
