Noticable outside sound inside the cabin

Not sure if this was discussed before. Once driving sound from the outside such as wind or other cars can be heard quite clearly....it feels like a window is slightly opened...Doesnt annoy me too much actually but wanted to see if all of them are like that.....

I love my G so going to go for a spin around town now

There is a TSB for weatherstripping coming off from around the outside of the door. I pulled mine out accidentally when I was going to close the door and realized I was slamming it too hard & I held my hand there and it pulled right out of the channel. After a walk around the car I noticed it was slightly pulled out on both back doors right at the curve around the top of the small window.

Walk around and the car with the doors closed and the weather stripping should look perfect. if you see any abnormality you may need to just poke it back in. I used a butter knife one time and a chop stick the other time.

I have been to the dealer many times trying to fix the hiss noise coming from the driver's side window. They "f"ed my car even more and did not get the noise fix. For a $40K car the noise should not be there. I see a lemon is coming.

Dude, why are you still driving your G. Woulda thought you've dumped it given that you don't really have anything positive to say about it.

I am thinking about trading it in but It will cost me about $6000. I can not drive a lux car with hiss noise coming from the window. And my WRX did rock, and so did my evo. I am seeing IS350 or ISF coming.

They have changed all the seals but the noise is still there. The tech guy agreed about the noise, but the Infiniti guy said that how it is suppose to be. Why the hell did they open up the car three times and tried to fix it the first place?

I hear ya, Lexus is right across from Infiniti at Superstition Springs in AZ.

I think I am going to be taking a trip over to look at the IS350 today..

This wind noise makes my car sound soo cheap.

This car is governed at 158mph, why am I hearing wind noise at 70-80mph.

This sucks...argh...
