Wind noise?

Does anyone experience wind noise through the seam of the two doors? I can only hear it at speed, but it's annoying. I checked the lining and it looks fine, but I cannot isolate the noise.

my driver side door has a windy noise sometimes, makes me think the door isn't shut all the way.

check the small "pop" (I really don't know what else to call it) window. If it is not completely sealed it can make noise.

i have noticed this myself . on the drivers side. the first time i noticed it i pulled over to make sure all doors where shut hard. its not that bad. i think the car is so quiet sometimes, that it seems more noticeable than, say, the cars with piston engines that i am use to.

I noticed that if you don't really SLAM the back doors than when you play music and have the bass all the way up the backdoors will somewhat rattle, at first I thought my speaker busted but then I opened the door and slammed it tight. Not really have to do with the wind noise but I thought maybe it's because you weren't closing the door hard enough.

This was already discussed in this thread. Yes, I also do have some wind noise that seems to be coming from the area over my shoulder. Not too bad, but pretty annoying.
