I doubt wind noise can be completely eliminated, but just wanted to ask to see how much wind noise you all get on the highway. I get it through the doors and windows, and some through the sunroof.

The sunroof is a separate repair issue on its own. If I pop it up in the air vent mode then close it, I'll get a lot of wind noise. I actually have to then open the sunroof a bit, then close it, to get it back to normal.

Aside from the sunroof, I get normal wind noises in through doors and window seals, just thought I'd ask if I can do anything about it. The seals appear fine, and my guess is that if I replaced them, it'd be the same. They probably can't eliminate wind noises completely, but thought I'd ask.

When your car was new, I doubt that it had much wind noise. But now that it does, that means that wind is getting in somewhere. I wouldn't be so sure that the seals are not the culprit. I had a noise problem on my 123 300D, and I discovered that it was because my front passenger door had the wrong door molding for some reason.

Even in other cars I've owned, by any manufacturer, I've heard wind noise. I just want a very, very quiet car, and I think a Benz was probably designed to give that as much as possible. I'm thinking mine is normal as can be, but I sure would like it quieter.

Thanks,

take a piece of very thin cardboard like the width of a business card and shut the doors on it, trying all along it. if there are sloppy places it will whistle. ad justing the latch can often stop a lot of it.

sometimes new door seals are in order.
