Wind noise on new H3

[westhillsat]

That sucks

[H3.007]

I think mine finally developed this problem. There is a gusting wind sound coming from the curved portion of the door and frame at the front upper left (higher speeds only or in cross winds). I believe it is a door seal or trim problem (perhaps both). How does one remove the external A-pillar trim plate (hood to roof) to check things out and apply 3M tape if necessary?

Thx,

pull back the door seal and take the screw out on the A-post cover

Is this happening to anyone with a straight roof? (no marker lights, no offroad lights, no sunroof) Ive got an 07 and I'm not sure if they have fixed this yes, I want to have marker lights installed but not if they are having all these problems.

Easiest fix for the marker light or off road lamp package is remove the lights and where the inserts are in the roof hit them with A punch and hammer(dont damage the insert) so the insert sits lower(yes, bend the roof tin) reinstall and now you have A much tighter fit.

Never had any issues with the windnoise on my H3, i got it right after the marker lights were on recall for the wind and somtehing else, and i was one of the first to get them dealer installed with the fix kit, and they did an awsome job, no windnoise at all.

I never had any wind noise on my H3 till a week ago. Speedy Auto Glass replaced the windshield. They didn't install the A pillar covers properly. So I took it back and this time the jackasses used windsheild sealant to fill in the gap between the cover and the windsheild. Looks like I'll be taking it back and talking with a manager on Monday.
