    wind noise from driver's window

    Hi all,

    so ive had my Arteon for 3 months now, and absolutely love it. There is just one thing im not happy about. When i go over 100kph i hear a wind noise coming from the drivers window, on the top/rightish side. At first i thought perhaps the window was not all the way up, but i made sure i opened it and re closed it. Same issue. I checked the seals all around..couldnt see any issues either..so the problem is still there.

    Its not a major issue, but its annoying since the rest of the car is so silent and great. I dont hear it when i have the radio on, but wish it was not there.

    Anyone else have this issue? I havent contacted the dealer yet either..

    I have the same problem! Mine is present even at lower speeds, especially when there’s a strong wind in the right direction. Very annoying!

    I haven’t taken the car for a service yet, but it will be something I tell them about when I do.

    Do you have a sunroof, out of curiosity?
    I was actually thinking at one point that there was some weird turbulence because of the sunroof — the one I took for an extended test drive didn’t have a sunroof and didn’t suffer from the horrendous wind noise.

    Nope, no sun roof and the noise only comes from driver side and exactly at 100kph or more. Its not that bad to be honest..but it annoys me.

    Is it more of a whistling noise?

    Yeah, its literally like when you leave a tiny gap when you dont close the window all the way up, like if it went up a couple millimetres more it would stop..
    I read somewhere that cars without frames on the doors sometimes have this problem and its as simple as adjusting the window so that it goes up a couple millimetres more when you close it.
    Lets see what they tell me on Tuesday. Its def not a sealing problem as ive checked and rechecked all seals around the door.

    Please keep us posted. I don't have the issue but I do get a really annoying constant creak from the same area that happens even with the smallest of bump in the road.

    Same issue here. I believe it's a rubber seal not sealing properly. Keen to hear if they fix the issue.
