Have you got wind noise?

[Cliff_944]

Do you have wind noise in your car?  Not that sort of wind!  

I get wind noise from the top of the drivers door.   The other door is silent.  The rest of the car is silent.  Its a quiet car.

I pick up a friend from the airport.  They said 'have you got your window open' when I was going about 70ish mph.  I then spent the rest of the journey trying to find where it was coming from.  I'm still not sure as it seems to come from somewhere and everywhere around the top of the window/door.  

The dealer checked the door, drove me around the block said it looks OK.  They fiddled with the door and tightend it a bit but it is still there.  If it was an older car you expect this sort of thing.  Its a silly niggle but a frustrating one on a new car.....

Any advice?

I have wind noise from the passenger side and it's not the mrs. I also have whistling from what could be the mirrors whenever either window is open... but it's the least of my worries at the moment

I find this disgusting from a car that a) costs far more than the average hatch back b) is meant to be premium and c) is based on a chassis that's been out since ~2005

VW have managed to adjust mine so that the noise only appears above 80mph on the drivers side, but 90mph on the passenger side is disgustingly loud.

This one issue is genuinely enough to put me off buying another Golf.

Agreed!  Thanks for that, I thought it was just me. I love my new car but this is really starting to bug me!

I have, only on drivers door, anything above 60mph. Seems to be coming from the top left. I'll put up with it until the 1st service but as said previously it should not happen on a car of this type.

I had it on my last mk6 the dealer made a minor adjustment to the passenger door and it was cured. Have a look at both doors as one maybe sitting slightly proud. 5 min job.
