Check how flush the trailing edge of your door is with the leading edge of the back door, when shut. If it's standing proud, even a little amount, can make a difference. It is very straightforward to adjust the striker plate and get the door to shut flush. This will not only tighten up the seal but also improve the smoothness of the outer surface of your car and thereby reduce wind moise
