ok i just bought a 60th anniversary ve commodore and there's a weird swirly windy noise coming from the right rear passenger door i think thats where its comming from we went back to holden and they couldnt find the problem anyone know what it is
Does it have visors on the side windows ?
nope and i dont see why it only comes from one side : /
Get someone to sit in the back and isolate the source of the noise.
Check that all the seals are in place around the door and windows.

Roof racks?
the rear door might not be aligned properly?
ill get someone in the back today
nar no roof racks
how could i tell if the door wasnt aligned?
A door misaligned enough to cause wind noise would be obvious so probably not that.

Wind the window up fully???
what we have here,is a failure too communicate!!
I had that once in my front door and it turned out the touch-free car wash was blowing the door seal out of whack just a little during the wash, once I realised I would just push it hard until I hear a click and the noise was gone each time.
Happens in my ve too, assumed it was normal as I've been in a few ve's and they all do it??
i have a feeling its the seal ill go over it
yeh a few do have the same thing its annoying once u notice it
have the same issue (though obviously not with a rear door)... Passenger side whistles from 60-100km/h. Never on the driver's side. That one's got me beat. Seals are fine, doors are aligned (and have been checked on two separate occasions), no loose trim - not quite sure what is left. it's catching somewhere.
Not that I can tell. Everything is clipped on tight. Only gap is the gap between the door and the trim - which has obviously always been there - but the wind hasn't always caught - Just can't find what's changed.
Wind your window down about 1cm till the air can flow freely through without a huge rush.
This will tell you if it's window seal related or not
