    Oh good, because you don't get any air movement at 110kph do you...

    my car doesnt let air in when im driving at 120km on the motorway.
    the op paid good money for a car it should be in perfect nick.
    i was just saying if he borrows a similar car and takes it for a spin he can compare it with his own car.

    gerrykin22's comment was perfectly valid. I have explained previously in the thread that the wind noise is intermittent and depends on not only vehicle speed, but also atmospheric conditions. I also mentioned that driving home last Sunday in very stormy weather, the wind noise was particularly bad.

    have you contacted the garage about going for a spin this weekend while its stormy?

    Sounds like its the glass-run seal then. Run a credit card around it with the glass down and see if you can find a gap or problem. Again, tape window to door (masking tape ideal) to confirm.

    Should be a consistent issue though, sounds like yours might be related to yaw'd onset flow of air which could suggest it is a form issue as opposed to a sealing one.
