Default Annoying wind rush noise!!

What a terrible drive to San Antonio. Does anyone else experience a wind rush noise coming from the passenger side door area? When the wind hits and blows it makes this howling sound. Anyone else experince the same thing? I am going to take it end soon when I need my oil changed. Very Irritating when the whole ride up there was windy.

Check your door seals, there is an RRT for some seal on the door or windows rubber.

If you rub your hand across the gap between the front of the door and the A pilar, you should fell the weather strip sticking slighty out. That is the source of that noise. I finally got mine fixed after a year of hassling with the dealer. the weatherstripping RRT did not fix this, it the the seal around the side glass. They had to adjust the door at the hinges and replace the weather striping around the door seal. Hope this helps. oh yeah, just remember to bring it in on a windy day so they can easily reproduce the noise and properly diagnosis.

Thanks for the information! I am tired of the noise too. lol I have had the truck just over a year and it started about 2 months ago. It went away so I left it to be, but the days on the way to San Antonio were very windy. I am going to go see if it is what you describe and I am pretty sure it is.

Thanks
