Inspection and Verification: Noise
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Wind noise, rattles and their sources are detected by driving the vehicle at highway speeds. The vehicle should be driven in four different directions with all of the windows closed, the audio unit off, the blower motor off, and all of the ventilation ducts open.
Most wind noise leaks will occur at the door and window seals or at the sheet metal joints in the door or the door opening.
