Omar A4 B9 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I've been experiencing wind noise in the driver's door when driving from 60mph and over. It sounds like the window isn't quite shut but I have closed the window as far as it will go. All the door seals and weather strips look fine and so does the wing mirror. Has anyone else had this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Is the door shutting properly? I ask as on my a6 the door hinges fail due to age causing the door to not shut properly despite the car believing it is. And the only way you can tell it's not shut is by seeing the door slightly ajar. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar A4 B9 Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 Thanks Steve. I think I may have found the issue. A bit of the weatherstrip between the little black triangle on the drivers door and the door frame was squashed in and leaving a little gap. I pried it out and the wind noise has noticeably reduced, it's still there slightly but much better. I think I may have to replace the weatherstrip to get a perfect fit to eliminate the noise completely. Interestingly I think my previous owner may have had the same issue on the passenger side because I could see marks on the body work where someone has clearly tried to work on that bit of weatherstrip.

Steve Q Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 You're welcome, Glad you've got to the bottom of it 🙂 As you say a new weather seal is probably the best answer 🙂 Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
