My GS400 has more wind noise than my LS430. The noise comes from the area around the side view mirror at freeway speeds. I noticed that the door seal near the mirror is softer than the rest of the door seal and does not sit firmly against the body when the door is closed. (See circled area.) Looks like maybe the wind has been flapping the seal back over time so now it doesn't sit firmly against chrome trim. But I'm not sure if what I'm hearing is normal wind noise from the mirror or if it is the gap causing wind noise. It doesn't seem like air actually gets in below the lifted up seal flap but maybe the gap is enough to cause noise? The LS430 has a similar seal and it sits tightly against the chrome trim.

There is a DIY for correcting this problem with 1/2 foam tubing.

Very cool, thanks! I will definitely give that a try first. $4 in 1/4 tubing sure beats $100 for a strip that may not change anything.
