[s-cars] Drivers side door wind noise at speed

[George Grubr]

just put your knee between the door and chassis and push the upper door
frame corner slightly towards the car (window down !!!). Repeat as necessary
until noise is gone. get spare drivers license and try higher speed .....

I had this problem with both S cars, this is easy quick fix, providing the
door are properly aligned with body when closed.

No idea about sunroof.

Remove the door panel.  See the four bolts holding the window frame to the
door.  Adjust accordingly.

When I get up to 100+ mph the top rear portion of the driver's side door
seems to get pressurized outwards, making a hurricane type sound.  It's
beginning to drive me crazy.

The door seals are in good shape.  The latch is adjusted correctly and
door closes tightly.  I thought of using a couple of small strips of
all-purpose weather stripping, but haven't tried it yet.  

Has anyone else experienced this and come up with a fix?


On another annoying note, the sliding sunroof cover makes a little
rattling noise around idle and on take off (low RPM's).  So far I've
been shimming it with my security key for work.  Any tricks for this
one?

Sorry to be so anal.  When the rest of my car is perfect it's the little
shit that drives me nuts.

Thanks in advance,
Kevin
