Anyone else have issues where they have wind noise just behind their ear on the drivers side? Only had the car a couple weeks but it seems to be most noticeable at highway speeds and just behind my ear, a little annoying.

I've noticed the same semi-annoying noise on the highway. It is more pronounced on a highway with a divider barrier like a short cement wall. Yet when I exit onto an off ramp the noise goes away. When out on open country roads it is barely noticeable. Maybe it is just some weird echo/reverb off the divider wall? It appears to come from the rear window vertical edge where is rests against the rubber seal. I have silicone lubed that seal and haven't noticed any real change. Other option may be to put an insert in the seal (like foam backer rod) to get a tighter seal against the window, but that is just a theory.

Yup, exactly the same as I notice, its very annoying. I may see if the dealer can look into it.

Greetings, just as a general question and to help you get better answers, which year and model car do you own and how many miles do you have currently? Did this noise recently start happening or since the time of purchase. I would take it to the dealer sooner than later if you are still under warranty as a general rule of thumb! On a positive note, I've experienced this in the past with different vehicles and it usually happened at higher mileage due to window trims/seals degrading which is relatively and quick and easy fix. Good luck on resolving your issue.

I definitely notice this issue too. I think it might have to do with the frameless window design. My 13 GS does not have this issue at all and its quite irritating because the cabin would be so much quieter without that sound.

Search-fu is weak, anyone knows how to find this part # for replacement on the rubber seal

Nevermind, found it.

2016 RC350 AWD purchased new, currently has 37k miles. The semi-annoying window noise has been around since I got the car. For now I'm just living with it because my list of other more annoying items keeps growing.

Mine seemed to vanish, no idea how or why but haven't heard it in weeks. What other things are annoying you? My car has 26k and the only weird things I notice is how the car seems to need more gas pedal then makes sense when backing up and the signal lever is annoying to use compared to traditional ones.
