TSB # for driver side window wind noise?
I read some where that there is a TSB for this issue. Would someone please tell me the number?
I can't find it here http://www.alldata.com/tsb/Honda/index-issue.html My 2007 Si coupe is very solid with this exception that drives me nuts since I do mostly highway (high speed) driving. I just want to go to the dealer prepared. Thanks! |

Get this, took brand new 07 EX Coupe for undercoating and 3M bra. Instantly had high pitch whine outside drivers window above 60 Km/ hr which my wife nailed down as outside mirror . While driving I ran my finger around outside of mirror and found a spot[the width of my finger] where whine stopped. I put a 2 inch piece of masking tape over the edge of the bra [ applied to the mirrors ] at the spot and whine stopped. It was actually the bra edge causing the whine. I told the installers and of course they had never heard of such a thing but trimmed back the edge of the bra aproximately 1/4 inch and the whine was reduced by about half. Of course when I told them this they almost called me a liar this time so I actually showed them where I put the tape and then took them for a ride and showed them that when I removed the tape the whine returned. They heard the whine and were quite astounded because it almost doesn't make sense. They are going to cut a new bra for the mirror and we will see what happens.

I even brought by car to the dealer and they replaced the whole door gasket/clips stating that they found a broken clip. Obviously, the noise did not go away. How did your noise sound? Was it a whistling sound that started at about 50MPH? It is so deceiving that it sounds like it’s coming from the top of the window. I'll try your trick tomorrow. Thanks! |

Well, I taped the 3M edges on my driver's mirror and the noise is gone! Thanks for the info... Now I have to go back to dealer and do something about it. I wonder what would change if they re-apply the film. For some reason the air is whistling only on this side.
