I had the same problem.
I printed out these bulletins and brought them to the dealer.
They ordered the parts....went back...and fixed it....
No more wind noise...

I also have a noise from my dash pod area, directly behind the brightness switches where the dash material comes to a "point." At a certain speed, it "buzzes" and makes the most irritating noise, like the material is separating from the plastic beneath and vibrating.

I get a little wind noise around the drivers window area when first starting out, but it disappears after a couple of miles.

Has anyone tried installing Rain Guards? Don't know if it might fix the problem but maybe it will. I know it's a Rain Guard not a wind deflector but i always wondered why in Japan they all have these rain guards on their cars, it must rain a lot over there.

I have this problem also. I posted a question here regarding this problem a few months ago but still there is no permanent solution to it yet.
I guess it the design it self since almost every G will have to problem when time comes, mine came at 17k miles and still insist. If anyone here find out how to fix this, please share it.

I have solution!!
I own 08 g35 ddr and i had same driver side front window wind noise.
do this first.
first while you are hearing a wind noise stick and push your finger on top corner of driver side window.
If you don't hear the noise your solution is

part number 2 glass run.
i already got this replaced by factory warranty little less than a year ago.
however it is back again.
I think root cause is driver side window gets loose (hold your window and move it side way) and rubbing against to this rubber part and making a hole there.
this time i'm gonna request to re adjust window and see this will fix the problem.
gook luck everyone!!

Irony #2, Nashville and it's surround cities (which include Franklin), have only ONE Infiniti dealership.

If I don't like their service, the next closest is two hours away.
Yup, Infiniti of Cool Springs sucks. They wouldn't fix my badly peeled steering wheel so I took it to Swope Infiniti in Louisville, KY and they replaced it no problem.

Can I still take this in to the dealer even though my warranty ran out last year? I only have 30K miles... and the noise is very annoying!

@mrclowny

Its worth a try. It helps if you regularly take your car to that dealership for regular maintenance. They may may be inclined to keep you as a customer.

I don't think the parts and labor were that expensive.
It only took them 10 minutes to make the bulletin fixes.
So there's a good chance that the dealership will take care of it.
I think I was well over the miles on my warranty but because it was a service bulletin, they took care of it.
Maybe take it in for an oil change and see if they can take care of the bulletins at the same time.

Good luck.

You can DIY the rear, for sure.
