"Wind sound" at 80km/h or above

[corgi]

Hi I notice "wind sound" in the cabin when my car (FLW212 E200) is travelling at 80km/h.   = I notice the sound since the car was 1 week old. I suspect there is some small gap that resulted in whistling sound when the car is travelling at higher speed. Does anyone have this issue with their E class? This never happened to my previous two cars ( a Volvo and an Audi).

I'm not sure if this is similar to something discussed in another section.

I also face this problem but my W212 is already 4 years old. So far i've been living with it! My wind noise is audible only when sitting at the rear seats. But the noise only appears if there is wind hitting the car from the side ie. when cornering or tail wind coming from the side..

My CLA oso got wind sound above 80km/h. Send to check. Nothing much done.

The sound is not very loud, I have to switch off the audio and listen carefully before noticing it.  I am concerned that it may get worse.  For me,if I steer towards the left , the sound will disappear for a while.  I am bringing the car back next week to check.  Also the sound insultaion is not as good as my Volvo and Audi, can hear the motocycle more clearly.

Agree.. Sound insulation isnt as good as expected. Noise seems to come in from behind... The boot..

IF whistling sound is from the windscreen then it is the front grill problem. The air travels into the front grill and out of the bonnet hit the windshield at the wrong angle, thus producing the whistling sound. Get it checked at your dealer. They will adjust the grill blades. Not a big issue.
