wind noise driver side window

[boatnikloew]

Every time I get in my 2024 big bend I get a lot of wind noise from my driver side window. I actually have to open then close the window to seal it properly. Is this just a common issue. Thanks

It likely just lost its way! Reset I think....go all they way down, hold for 5 sec, all the way up, hold for 5.

The new window seal used for this SSM is supposed to seal against the window better

Might be worth doing this too

There is a surprisingly easy adjustment accessed through the bottom of the door. Open the door and lie down beneath it. You'll see two approximately 2x3 in rubber grommets. They pry off easily. Then take a deep socket 10mm and loosen the bolt through that opening (just loosen about 1/2-3/4 turn). Using the socket pull outwards and retighten. Repeat for the 2nd one. Replace the grommets and you're done.

I found the hardest part of this whole process to be getting up off the garage floor.

This will lean the window into the gasket at the top and MAY reduce some of the noise you're hearing. The process is so easy, it's certainly worth a try. I did this to alleviate some of the wobble when the window is 1/2 opened and it seems to help with that.

Is the window going down and up 1/2” when you open and close the door?

Unplug and replug in the door

I had this issue after I removed and replaced the door. The plug wasn’t fully seated

Could you elaborate on this pulling outwards? Like outwards away from the vehicle?

Yes, outwards from the vehicle - toward the outside skin of the door. You cannot get a finger into the hole to push the bolt, so just use the leverage to pull outwards - it won't move far, it doesn't need to.

Is the window short drop feature working?

Or just pull the door off and put it upside down!!!!

this noise comes from the top where the glass meets the rubber seal. It goes in next week anyway for a rear axle seal that leaks after 500 miles. Could have been there from the git go. LOL
