Wind noise

the one on the red car , with the higher lip.
When I showed the dealership these pictures they didn't know what I was talking about.

Did you get one of the new ones yet?

Great work Franco. Yes I experience wind noise also (vf2 ssv reline Ute).

I put some thin weather guards on Windows. I think that added to the noise.

Any solution to that lip. Perhaps some of that door seal strip rubber perhaps.

Hey guys,
I'm really happy with my wagon, in fact I'm loving it.
However I have noticed that at 90+ the drives door starts to sound like the window is cracked open.. on a few occasions I've checked the window to see if it is closed. My wife even commented, when she drove it on the weekend.

I'm taking it in for the 1mth service next week, and have informed the dealer... so will see what comes from that.

I was going to get the windows tinted next week, but will hold off until it's been to the dealer first, so they can't use that as an excuse

Anyone know of a fix?

Can't say I have any problem with wind noise with the weather shields, but then I silicon the gaps as the sticky tapes weren't too good on the shields.

Genuine ones?

Genuine ones?

Not genuine ones, I had genuine weather shields on my previous VF1 ute and it has a screw clip at the bottom end. Those non genuine ones don't have the clip and look slightly neater but then the sticky tape weren't too good on them. I applied a thin layer of silicon to protect sticky tapes and filled the gap between the plastic shield and door frame. So far so good.

Did anything come of this? I took mine to dealer yesterday with exact same issues. They said it’s normal. I find it incredibly irritating!
