Hello
before you call me a boyracer or something: I live in Germany and there are no speed-limits on some streets :-))
Problem: Most time I'm driving to work on no-speed-limited highways and normally so fast as my car can go (245km/H on the speedo). Now I have spend some money to a Power-upgrade-kit and I am very happy with it.
BUT: The car is now able to run over 260 km/H (on the speedo the needle disappears 1 cm behind the 260) and if the car reaches the 250 km/area the left rear windows seams to open itself and the streaming air causes a noise like somebody blowing you directly with a whistle in your ears.
If I open the window a litle bit, it's o.k, but therefore it's again much more louder.
The other windows doing a streaming noise as well, but they do not open themselves.
Does anyone have a fix (Don't say that I have to drive slower ;-))
Can the doors be adjusted to get more pressure on the glass against the rubber?
Perhaps somebody sell other door-rubbers!?
Or is it simply the fact because there are no borders on the windows?
Thanks
Frank

I also have a rear door seal problem although not any where near those speeds. I will be having this sorted out soon at my first service and will post whether a new seal solves the problem
