Wind noise found. Now what? Drivers window. (1 Viewer)

Finally found my wind noise - right where it sounded like it was coming from too. Top corner of my drivers window. Is this the window channel? Is there somewhere inside I can squirt some silicone? What’s my next step? Wow it sounds so quiet now - I can hear what I’ve been missing . Oh and the greasy stuff in the pics is the Honda grease that was recommended for seals that I tried.

That seal is replaceable and still available. Had the same issue, put in the new seal, fixed.

Silicone any and all rubber without harm.... Petroleum based grease and rubber on the other hand don't mix well but not a big deal on this stuff

But dude, you fixed the problem already. Maybe another layer of tape and off you go. =]

Smart investigative work with the tape. I had the same issue and replaced the seal, problem solved.

The Honda silicone (ShinEtsu if you are looking for it) works wonders if used early and often. I put it on the seals on our convertibles about twice a year. But it won't help once the seal is bad.

Thank you for the part numbers - ordered today. Any install tips or tricks or is it straightforward? Btw I did a 2 hour road trip with the tape - wow wow wow the quiet is awesome . I’ve been missing out.

Just used some silicone spray to slide the seals down

Same same. Spray the channels with silicone and then use the window up/down motion to help drag the seal down into the channel.

I removed the window. I’d hate to get the seal off kilter and tear it, but maybe I’m overthinking it.
