Ihave posted this in the Cayman/Boxster section, but wondered if any 991 owners had had an experience of similar seeing as they share the mirror housing etc.... Thanks!


Hi all,

Very very happy with my recent purchase as some of you may know, however there has been a minor niggle that I'm hoping someone may be able to assist with......

Shortly after picking up the car I noticed what appeared to be some wind noise from the drivers side window. I reported the issue to my dealer who after extensive test driving suggested that the door seal so be replaced.

The door seal has been done, but the noise is still there. Having driven the car around with the window open due to the good weather it has become apparent that the 'whistle' is indeed coming from somewhere else, but is loud enough to still hear when the window is closed....

My first thought is it could be the door mirror, but apparently this was removed to check when the car was being test driven.

Does anyone one have any experience with anything similar?? It is quite annoying to be honest and I just want to get it sorted now!

I know the tech has done this, but i'm going to have a go at taping a few of the bits up to see if I can isolate it. My ear is clearly tuned in to it!

Any help would be very welcome!

Thanks,

Nick
