Wind noise
No, not that sort...
Soon after delivery I noticed that I would sometimes hear a low pitch roar coming from around the 'B' pillar when subjected to strong cross winds, either natural or from overtaking juggernauts (doing rather more than their 56mph!). As the incidence was very occasional I didn't give it much thought and the dealer hadn't come across anything similar. During the early summer I happened to be looking along the gutters from the front of the car and noticed the rubber seal wasn't seated properly - just rear of the 'B' pillar! Using a thin piece of card to gently ease the seal out had it looking about right and I haven't experienced the noise since. It's worth checking the seal from time to time as it's a cosy 'handgrab' for people reaching in and out of the car and can easily be 'squished' out of place.
