like a whistling?

[ITSpecialist]

Yeah I sometimes get the same. It's to do with the window seal because it's only held closed by pressure. Could some how greese the seal?

There is a product that people use - just can't remember the name

my driver window does the same, it must drop 1-2mm down, enough to let the wind whistle in. If you wind the window up a bit it stops for a few seconds till it dops down again. Its mildly annoying.

I thought members in the past have replaced the window seal

 

 

The product used to treat the window rubbers is Gummi Pflege

[BulletMagnet]

...which is german for "Rubber Care"

Gummi Pfledge isnt the holy grail...

 

It has lessened my noise somewhat, but no way is it solved.

 

You need to do the window reset thing, involves taking the doorcard off and putting the windown up and down whilst pushing something on the motor.

 

do a search on it, but be prepared for a job that takes a while and is fiddly. Will do mine at some point.

window reset is in the guides section

[matth76]

I'm going to get mine fixed for free by Nissan. It's a recognised "common problem" and should definitely be covered by the extended mfr warranty if not outside of warranty if the dealer is good. My window seems to go up fine when the door is closed but the rubber seal on the outside doesn't quite cover the top.

I done a window reset on mine before, and once you know how it's done, it's a 10 min job (honest).

Just be careful not to snap the top door speaker trim like I did, when removing the doorcard.
