I have the same problem on my 03. Check the posting I made recently that has a link to the TSB. I'm trying to get the dealer to fix it. They have to road test the car and than put some foam inserts to fix it. The dealer wouldn't fix it for me because they claim they don't hear anything.

I took mine in for it they said they didn't hear anything, they must have had my radio on pretty loud.
And I gave them the TSB number.

I have this problem. I believe that it is the sunroof because it becomes much quieter if I close the shutter over the sunroof. I think I need to do the TSB for rear windows too. The max was so much quieter when I first bought it but now the wind noise is starting to get to me.

Mine is at the dealership right now getting the wind noise fixed on the right rear door. Basically, they ordered an all new rubber fitting to go around the door. I didn't have any wind noise coming from the sunroof just that back door. I actually printed out the TSB and brought that too them because I didn't want to fight about anything.

There is also a fix for the sunroof. They add a metal shime to in the inside of the sunroof that pushes it up some. The problem with our sunroofs is they sit to low and that is where the wind noise gets in........Have the dealer fix it. You can also buy the part it cost like .70 cents.

So far I've not had a problem with wind noise.
After reading how many on here have a problem with it, i've tried to listen more closely and
so far sounds OK, got 22k miles now.

I have the same problem....took it to the dealer and they said they couldn't hear any wind noise when they tested it at 40 mph. Only heard at 60 and up mph.
