Wind Noise

I don't have it handy but essentially my two rear window trim pieces were not fitting flush with the roof trim. The frames come as one piece and they replaced the entire rear window frames and now they fit much better, flush to the rest of the trim. I think that was what was causing the slight wind noise. If you request that, they will know because my mobile tech said he's been doing many of these.

Sounds good! I’ll give them a call, thank you!
 
Mobile service yesterday - wind noise fixed! Mine was only an issue at highway speeds. The fix involved the installation of retention clips (2per) for the trim pieces at the top of each door. There was nothing done with the rubber seals or the roof rack insert cover pieces.
 
I have one of the early model Airs so each body panel is unique = the gaps are huge and un-alignable. The rear door and trunk lid seem to be from different models salvaged from a junk yard.
I suppose I could put tape on the seams like glider pilots

...but the car is so awesome I just don't care. You just go fast enough to move the turbulence to a different area. Speed cures.
