For me it was from the windows, the window seals were bad on the outside,
the channel felt. I replaced those and no more noise for me. If those are
fine, then it's gotta be the door seal, replace seal or the door needs to be
realigned to seat properly when closed...In my van, I find I get more noise
from the wind blowing in from the front, into the vent system, how do you
get rid of that...

Subject: Wind Noise

I'm about to begin a campaign to reduce the noise level in my van. First
I want to reduce wind noise, and then will go for sound deadening
materials applied where necessary.

I have a lot of wind noise around the upper parts of my doors, as well
as around my sliding door on my 88 GL. It sounds as if the seals are not
seated in spots against the body frame when shut.

Any suggestions as to how to identify the spots and deal with this?
