Anyone else getting excessive wind noise from the driver side window? specially in the top left corner where the window turns? its bugging the crap out of me and will be taking it to the dealership, just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this or just me.

Thxs,

I have a '15, but no, never. I have heard others mention that they can hear wind noise from the drivers side mirror though, but I've never noticed that myself.

I am not 100% sure where its coming in from but I suspect the at the corner of the windows where the glass isn't sealed properly when the door closes. So irritating. I am going in tomorrow for a alignment, noticed it off with only 100 km's on the car. hopefully I didn't get a lemon

No sign of any wind noise from anywhere - and I'm coming up on about 3K miles.

I have read complaints of wind noise originating from the mirror area when PPF has been applied to the mirror assembly.

What's worse than lemons are Friday afternoon made cars. Cars with lots of little issues but no big issues. Super annoying.

2014 350 awd f sport and I have it. There is a lengthy thread on here in regards to it. Yes it is irritating.

darkarmy

since I've picked up the car, which was last Thursday I've had

1. Alignment issue
2. all four tires were at different PSI's
3. Yellow dots banked onto random spots on the rear bumper and side skirts
4. Wind Noise
5. still looking

If I wanted problems built with car, I would have went with a Hyundai. Thought Lexus was all about Quality

2015 IS 350 f sport here with same noise and location. At some point I will buy some weather stripping and do some DIY troubleshooting. It looks like the top left seal just is not pushing up against the window enough.

That's the EXACT thing that came to mind when I first noticed it. Gonna mention it to Lexus tomorrow morning and see what they do about it.

Now that you guys mention it, I did think there was an excessive amount of wind noise coming from my door when I drove but I only notice if I drive with no music. I like to blast my music all the time so I never actually listen for it. Hahaha

darkarmy

I hear it even with music on, its right next to my ear and I always feel like a small draft of air is blowing near my ear.

Do you have any clear protection on the side mirrors?

If yes, that may be the cause.

darkarmy

no protection, just picked up the car last week. I read on the forums here that a lot of others were having a similar problem with the clear protection film.

Congrats on your new car. Welcome to Club Lexus.

Can you elaborate on the alignment issue? Is it pulling?

The tire pressures were probably set by the dealer and not a Lexus quality issue. They are often over inflated for transport, then left to the dealer to bring down to normal levels. As I have found with the nature of such low profile tires, variability is very easy. It's tough to get them all the same, as just a little bit of air makes a large difference. How far off were they?

I'm not sure what you mean by the yellow dots. Is it just rail dust? If so, that's quite common and can easily be removed (Google IronX).

As for the wind noise, I don't have any in mine, but hopefully the dealer can make some adjustments for you.
