Wind Noise .....whistling while it works !

[Dux-n-Dawgs]

Yep, mine does it ! I'm getting wind noise in the area where my main doors and access doors meet at the top. The harder I slam both doors, the less wind noise I get ................. but it never goes away.

 

Between my truck and various co-workers and buddies .......... All 6 trucks that I've been in that were extended cab GMT800's did it.

 

Is there any way to stop this??? I'm about to go on a +600mile / 10.5 hr one way trip, plus 400 miles once there, and then 600 back home ............ I can only take so much 'whistling while it works'.

 

Any and all help is much appreciated !

My '03 does it. Dealer could never fix it and I got tired of taking my truck in for it so I gave up. Normally it's just air noise, but in a good cross wind it actually makes a whistle.

[Dux-n-Dawgs]

That's the same way mine is J45 ............ wind noise most of the time, but a good hard cross-wind and it's a full blown whistling sound.

I've also noticed it's more noticeable when it is raining/wet.

mine does it in cross wind to, ext cab.

i wonder if you attach some foam tape 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch along top of door or cab it might seal alittle better? cheap if it works

My ext. cab suicide door on the drivers side does it once in a while when I don't slam the crap out of it.

My '01 ext cab sb 4x4 dosen't have any wind or whistle noises.

My 2006 Z71 Extended cab had a bad wind noise coming from the pass side rear window area. Dealer replaced entire window assembly and noise went away...

The rear window on pass side was noisey. I glued it shut with silicone. I never opened them anyway. Nice and quiet now.

I have the same issue with my 2000 extended cab. I found that the door seal on truck, up by the roof, is loose and slides down (hard to explain..). I push the door seal back up so it is tight and the whistling goes away.

[Dux-n-Dawgs]

I was wondering if it was only me. Seems like a good many of them do it from my experience but just never seen it discussed on a forum before.

 

THANKS ! I'll check into some of those ideas.

My 04 gmc had the whistling passenger side extended cab door window ,went to the dealer friday and there is a tsb out on it they adjusted the handle to pull the glass in tighter to the truck now it doesnt make any noise

Just put the HVAC control on recirculate, that seems to equalize the air pressure on the ex. cab windows and eliminate the wind noise.
