2008 LS 460 wind noise from front windows
I have a 2008 LS460L and the front driver's and passenger's windows have wind noise, sometimes worse than others. I also drove a 2007 which experienced the same problem. thankfully it is still under warranty, but not sure if there is anything which can be done. not sure how a car with doubled paned windows can have so much wind noise.
anyone have the same issue?

I am having the same problem but it's not from the triangle piece by the rearview mirror. Mine is from the gasket surrounding the front driver door window. When I put the window up, the window folds over a part of the gasket toward the top edge causing the wind noise. If I hold the gasket back and put the window up, no noise. I've tried re heating and forming the fold but no luck. I'll be buying a replacement from Lexus which is about $90.

is150 I have also done the jmcraney fix and have, at this point done everything I can to prevent more noise except replacing all of the window seals/gaskets, but I too have also had this piece of the gasket fold in and I can't seem to "unfold" it. . .oh well

I found a weird fix that ended my wind noise.
Silicone grease.... you can find it online or at any dive shop.
Used a Q tip to apply it in the window track and now the window closes and seals perfectly.
