Audi D2 A8 - A Pillar Wind Noise
I have been going through the old threads on this one this evening trying to look at a plan of action.
My D2 A8 (2002 2.8 QS) has some wind noise around the A Pillar when I get to 70mph, not huge but annoying as the rest of the car is so quiet. Also I do notice it as my S8 does not have the same problem and is overall quieter (S8 has double Glazing though so that will help). The A8 is a 2002, 65k on the clock and very good condition. Doors and door cards never been off by the look of it also. The noise is coming from the top of the A pillar. Now what I have done so far: 1) Frame looks to be lined up perfectly, door also lined up perfectly 2) I have compared and measured the A8 and S8 and all seems OK and match 3) I Gummy Pfledged all the rubber seals 4) I used silicone grease on all the rubber seals 5) I pulled the door in a little using the catch plate on the B Pillar 6) I replaced the door seal with a good used one from A8 Parts 7) I used some rubber tube under the door seal to try and push it out a little 8) I have tried taping round the window and windscreen to see if that made any difference also 9) I swore at it 10) All seals seem good, intact, in place and where they should be and all bolts and hinges good and tight Any other thoughts?
