Cheap effective fix for wind noise at B pillar

[Highspeedplay]

Well I did mine and not really any different, still seems like its the mirror at window edge or
front windshield area . any other tips. I did see where there is not a seal on either side of the windshield ,I did seal that with molding but it didnt make any difference either. I am still playing around with different areas.

Yep but lots of owners are buying rubber stripping for the non problem.

Same. Installed mine last night and took it for a rip on the highway this morning. Did nothing and still the same. I’m starting to think that the OP that started this thread owns the Amazon store we bought these gaskets from. Haha.

Well good news is it came off so easy that it probably would’ve fallen off within a week anyways.

I did mine just now. Idk if it really worked but oh well, I guess it will help with the dust and salt grime.

Fine....I got sucked into buying some too. If it helps reduce dust and grime inside thats a bonus. Might try to see if I can add some at the bottom of the door too if it needs it.

The wind noise I have on my Lariat is up higher, it sounds more like something tiny sticking out into the airflow, and only on the driver side. Barely there, but there.

Is the door alignment good on that side? Misaligned doors were also contributing to noise on my truck.

Not sure I'm going to try it, but how many feet are you guys using?

 

[Deleted member 9968]

Just figured 4ft or 121.92cm when doing mine. You will have extra.

Want inside baseball. Complain to the dealer and get ford to give you a 3 year 45k maintenance package. Without asking.

You are welcome

Was there alcohol involved prior to this post?!

 

[BigAir]

High possibility.

So were you suggesting to complain to Ford about the wind noise, with the hopes of getting a free maintenance package?

Nope. I brought my truck in multiple times for this issue. And Ford reached out and hooked me up without even asking.

Bring it to the dealer to document the issue

I am about to do this as the passenger side is very quite and the Driver side is not.

Painters tape is a good way to check where noise originates.

25 years ago I used to work at a body shop when I was a kid and have tried The painter tape and tissue paper and everything and still can’t figure it out. It’s the strangest thing. My buddy has a RR and his has the wind noise also.
