Whistling noise from driver side window

[Emma Pike]

We drive a 2022 Silverado 1500 RST and since I purchased it new the driver side window makes a whistling/wind noise when going at speeds over 64 miles per hour. It sounds like it is coming from the top left corner of the window. Dealership installed rain guards but the whistling is still there and gets louder as speed increases. They have no other answers but can also hear the noise. Anyone else experiencing this or know of a fix?

I have a 2022 ZR2. I have noticed the same noise. Also when others car pass by. At first I thought the window was down a bit. I also have rain guards over the doors. Until I read this thread I had just accepted it.

Wild guess based on owning a lot of GM stuff, your doors aren't hung right. Let the dealer look at it, but probably going to need to back off the bolts in the hinge assemblies and give the door a tweak. 

 

Pretty normal Chevy stuff after some years, showing up a bit early.

I had this same issue with my 2020 1500 at4. I would get a whistle at high speeds or strong head winds. It turned out to be the door seals not sealing properly. Hope this helps.

Which pic is correct, first one with red arrows #2 where the tabs are inside the opening or one with green #3 arrows and tabs on outside?

I'm sure it the latter. Tabs on the outside. That would lock it in place.

I drive a 2021 Trail Boss Custom.  Same noise all the time.  It is so loud that people can hear it when I talk on the phone.  Is there an actual fix for this?

I'm looking for similar info for my 2024 Tahoe LS. We hear a high-pitched, fluttering, whistling at highway speeds that sounds like it is coming from high on the front windows (more on the drivers side). We don't notice the whistling sound when raining with wipers on. 

I haven't brought it in to the dealer yet to have them investigate yet. I'm going try the suggestions above first. Keep the suggestions and updates coming! Thanks

My 2023 Silverado doesn't have any whistling sound but did have a fluttering, flapping sound at highway speeds - kinda sounded like it was coming from the HVAC vert area. Took me a while to find it but it turned out to be a part number label on one of the wiring harnesses, above the upper control arm. Couldn't really see it until I partially moved the wheel well liner.
