Wind Noise

[Boomer AZ]

Interesting, SC believes that PPF on the side mirrors contributes to wind noise. Has anyone else heard this?

Whaaaat….? First time I’ve heard of this.

Nope. Unless it’s flapping around, I’d tell SC to continue investigating.

Same, and I’ve had PPF everywhere, including but not limited to the side mirrors, since my car was delivered.

 

[Boomer AZ]

Said that it changes the speed of the airflow around the mirror. Stated that testing has been done with/without PPF. I was quite shocked to hear this. Not sure I believe it either, but just reporting what they told me this morning. I’m 100% PPF’ed.

I’ve never heard of PPF changing anything like this. Mine are PPF’d and ceramic coated, so they are very slick.

Same. I can’t speak to non-ceramic coated, I suppose.

My car is a lease, I have neither ceramic nor PPF. I had no whistle for over a year, then it just showed up one day. No idea what changed, but it wasn't any kind of coating or film.

If not already done, perhaps this TSB will solve your wind noise problem. It solved mine.

Concern: Client states the driver rear upper run channel molding is popping out. Please check and advise. Confirm proper fitment.
Cause: The side door glass run seals lose retention and separate from the door frame.

Has there been a solution to this? 2025 Air 60mph and higher has a very annoying whistle.

Big NOPE...Get in line...I've been struggling with this one since I got the car in 2023...tried various things and shared them here and lessons learned...this one issue seems tenacious...

I’ve had this issue with my Chevy Vokt and my Tesla X. Only solution is to crack a window or two to eliminate the buffering whistling noise.

 

[Bus Driver]

I’ve come to ignore it. The wind noise coming from upper part of the driver’s window comes and goes.

It’s more likely to happen, and more pronounced, when I first drive the car away from my house, where my car has been garaged. The whistling, wind rush noise becomes muted and sometimes goes away completely, the longer I drive the car.

Bought this seal, sort of L shaped and fits under the original seal.

First run to meansure the cut but its holding in place ok without double sided tape.

Will commute to work tonight to see if it works before sticking it on.

Video link is how it looks complimenting the orginal seal.
Yes Yes totally feel on a $150k car we shouldn't need to do this, but other brand $150k car doesn't have the EV tech Lucid has.

I just want my car to be better without being too judgemental, my son said with music he couldn't hear the wind so why bother with seal.

I had tried this same fix myself awhile back and didnt have much success. Hopefully you have better results!

I had Lucid mobile service come out and they adjusted all my window seals so now I took all my additional stripping off and the car is quiet.
It's clear to me now that it was not the weather stripping that was the issue, it was the black trim pieces not sitting correctly.

The trim pieces, particularly the curved ones follow the lines of the car, are problematic. Most of them don’t seem to sit quite exactly right in my car. Coming from Tesla I’ve learned not to let it bother me but I can see them redesigning a few pieces down the road. The little clips that you can remove for roof rack install are hilariously flimsy.

Oh wow… I wasn’t thinking that for this newly developed whistle, those roof rack inserts. Think I’m going to try SC.

Hi MGRMLN… Would you have a Job or Work # that was done to your window seals so I can send it to my mobile service tech? I have the same annoying wind noise and hopefully having an official bit of information from Lucid themselves will sort it out…
Thank you!!
