Struggled to find the source of that noise for over a year. Did this repair on the road in Tampa and worked perfect. Got the last piece of weatherstripping the store had in stock and after a 5 minute warm up and install, the truck is now super quiet. Thanks sir for the quick and painless fix to a frustrating problem!!

Saw your video and tried your quick fix. It works great!!! Was thinking about trading the truck in because the noise was driving me crazy. THANK YOU!!!!!

Perfect. I just noticed that hum noise on the passenger side while driving on the highway. It was pretty alarming at first but I quickly came to believe it was some sort of wind related noise as it would come and go with different speeds and wind directions. Thanks!

Worked like a Charm! Thanks for putting this video together.

Thank you for posting this video. I just bought a 2015 Tacoma, and I immediately had that issue driving home. Yesterday, we were trying to figure out where it was coming from. Found your video and the Taco weather strips. Problem solved.

Definitely going to do this on my 05’ Tacoma, sometimes I feel like I didn’t close my windows all the way up but know I really know the real problem, thanks!

This video is top shelf.! I have a 2015 Tacoma and that noise drives me and passengers crazy. I’m definitely going to buy two 7ft lengths of that weather stripping , and install it. THANK YOU!!

Your best video ever! "Fortunately, my wife doesn't watch my videos" I was dying!

Thanks for this tip. It was an amazingly easy and cheap fix to a problem that drove me crazy on my Tacoma. I've driven in some pretty horrific cross winds since I installed this stuff and NO HOWL! Thanks!

I owned a Hyundai Palisade with a driver side wind noise, I followed your introduction and it helped minimize the wind noise thanks 👍

Just bought it , had no idea many people were having the same noise with the 2nd gen Tacoma , THANK YOU !

So glad I found this video! Thank you!! For a few years now we’ve wondered what on earth is causing that noise.. thought maybe wind blowing through the wiper blade holes, something with the mirror or windshield.. we have discovered that if you spray A ton of wiper fluid it wets the noise temporarily to stop lol definitely going to do this though!

I added the gasket exactly as you did and it was a mixed bag. Noise from the front edge of the door was quieted but the vertical back edge of the door was far worse. It sounded as if the door wasn’t even closed. Since it was all the gasket I had I took it off and I decided to order a helluva lot more so I can do the entire perimeter of the door. I also ordered slightly thinner gasket.

Love all your Tacoma videos brother! Thanks !

great vid! I was having this problem with my grand am and this is definitely an easy and cheap solution!

Thanks for this video, I have the same problem and I thought it was turbulence caused by the design of the rear view mirror ... this is quite the shortcut to a solution

We tried your idea… works fantastic!!

I had this same problem for 3 years I keep taking to the dealership and they keep changing the weather strips they told me the manufacture knows of this but they cannot do nothing bout it and lucky I found ur video and thanks I’ll buy this and try it thanks again

I thought it was a leaky windshield, but since you described the noise perfectly this must be the cause! This is the first video i've seen of yours and if this works you got yourself a new subscriber!

Thank you for this. I was about to take my door apart for the second time to find what could possibly be making the noise haha

My 2011 Tacoma did this from day one. The dealer could not hear it, so I've been living with it for 9 years now. Nasty howl at around 75 mph. With $7.00 worth of small D shaped stripping and 10 minutes of labor.... problem solved. I should have done this years ago. Thanks !!

It never crossed my mind, Thanks! Package is coming tomorrow so I will leave the update 👍

Just installed on my 2015 2nd Gen, so far it is significantly quieter. Hoping for good results when I get the crosswinds at 80 mph. Thanks!!

I have this problem on my 2016 Tacoma and it seems to be getting worse. Thank you so much for your help. BTW Awesome shirt 👍🏻

Gonna give this a try. Been dealing with that noise for too long!

My 2014 FJ cruiser has the wind noise. Didnt know if it was the roof rack or what. Found your video when searching my problem.

This fix works! My 2016 access cab had a howl that sounded like a kazoo in a crosswind at highway speed. Nice and silent now! Thank you so much for posting this and the link for the size of weather strip needed!

Thank god I found this video I was already going to turn in my truck for a chevy

I am definitely going to try that because it is absolutely driving me nuts and it usually only happens when it’s not a very windy day and I’m driving on the freeway

My Toyota dealer quoted me almost $400 to purchase new seals for the front doors and to install. I’m gonna try this first :)

Appreciate the content! Very helpful.

Did it! Fixed it! Thank you!!!

Thank you sir I have 2015 Tacoma make the noise on the window same way you are 🥰👍👏👏👏 thank you again!!

This seems to be the case for 3rd Gen Tacomas. fricking drives me nuts when on the highway! I'll try this and I really hope it works!

Thanks for the info! I'll definitely give it a try. I've been told the noise could be a number of things, from the hood scoop itself to the windshield gasket being faulty, to even a "small part that is loose" located behind the radiator haha. I only hear it on strong windy days regardless of the speed. If rolling down the window didn't do the trick, would you still recommend to give the weather seal a try?

Thanks, Toyota gave me a few part #'s for replacement weatherstrips that fix this but they wanted $75 for each one. I've had my Tacoma for 6 years now, never got this fixed because it doesn't bother me all that much. I might actually buy this part, much better price for sure. Also, not 100% sure but I think this problem only affects double cab models.

Thanks for the video. I will try it. I have a 2015 Tacoma which I bought recently. The whistle sound was odd. The remedy of turning the stereo up louder is not a permanent fix for sure.

I’m trying this on my RAV4. Like another poster mentioned, I’m about to turn this freaking thing in for a Chevy. This new RAV4 rattles more than any vehicle I’ve ever owned and the trim pieces fly off and/or break with just a sideways look. At least this tip might solve my window noise problem. Thanks!

Man this just started today for me. Whistling over 50mph, crack the window and the whistling stops. I’ll have to try this!!

I have a 2003 Tacoma, I thought the whistling sound was coming from the right side vent. Will have to give this a try.

Having this same problem. Ordered today. Hope it works.LF and RF gaskets are $103 a piece, then installation. Not covered under my new Toyota Platinum warranty. Fingers crossed. Will post after install

Thank you this worked on my tacoma

Awesome I'm about to do this on my 3rd gen. Been looking for some ways to minimize the wind noise.

Wow, that solves a major issue gojng on 10 years. Usually when I get to 75-80 mph. First it felt like the passanger side front tire. Checked it out. Wasn't that and eventually figured it was some kind of wind reverberation. Then I thought it was the antenna (maybe causing some weird wind flow)-- I lost my OEM antenna early on at a car wash and replaced it with something from O'Reilly's.I actually ordered an OEM antenna from a Toyota dealership thinking that woukd fix it. Didn't work. Then I installed wind guards. I will say the wind guards DID reduce the problem but didn't 100% eliminate it. But wow, thanks for this info. I love my Tacoma, but this has been an annoyance for a while now. Ordered the parts, just waiting to install.

Damn this is a great idea! Thanks!

I know this is an older video but my 2015 Tacoma had this problem, it only happened when driving at high speed with a strong cross wind. I bought a similar weather stripping and now after 5 months I haven't heard the noise since. Essentially the stock weather stripping was acting like a reed in an instrument. Just like this video says it puts just enough pressure on the stock weather seal and the squeal disappears.

you just get rid of my painful stress

What size of weather strip did you install? I see several options on the Website for TACO Marine.

I just installed the “D” shape weather strip I bought off amazon on my nissan frontier, just to see if would really make the wind noise go away and he was right when he said the vibration came from the door because my truck vibrated a little when at cold start or at idle, but now it has little to no vibration after installing it. The noise how ever was questionable, i felt like it didnt do too much to the wind noise. It did muffle a little bit of the noise but nothing drastic in my opinion. But very good video man keep up the content👍👍

Your amazing 💪🏽

My 2014 Sequoia does this..drivers side only. I may try this. Around 75mph it really has a distinctive wind noise that sounds like it's coming from exactly where you pointed at

10/10 would recommend

I bought a 2015 Toyota Tacoma and same thing happens as soon as you reach 70 mph. I get a horrible whistling sound that is extremely annoying, I called they dealership and they played stupid and said they never heard of anything like that. So I finally figured it out about a month after I bought it. It’s the rubber door seal not thick enough to block the air flow going through, between the door seal and the cab making the whistle Sound. So by adding gaffers tape behind the rubber door seal, it stops the noise. The fix for me was to use 8ft x 1/2” strip of gaffers tape along the door behind the rubber seal so it pushes the rubber out more to make it thicker and make it seal the door better to the truck. I put the strips of tape about 5 times to make it thick enough to push the seal out enough to eliminate the noise. It worked! for about three years, but I’m starting to hear it again. So I’m going to try this taco weather lining next and hopefully it stops the noise for good. It’s Sunday 10/24/21 gaffer tape is about $25.00 a roll and it looks like duct tape, but anyway, you’d think the dealer would replace it for free since it’s a bad product in rubber seal design. I’m going to call the dealership one more time since it’s been a few years and see if they will honor it since I’ve bought about seven Toyota trucks from them over the years, I realize it wishful thinking and they’ll probably play stupid again. Oh well it’s worth a call to see.

Might this work per whistling noise after removing an Air Dam from a 'Tacoma Limited' or the other Tacoma Trims with Air Dams like the 'Tacoma TRD Sport & 'Tacoma SR5 Trim ??

Very helpful!!

Great video! My 2013 Tacoma has been doing this for years. Can you give me the correct Taco Metals Weather Seal part number for that or size thickness description?

I bought the weather stripping in your description and applied before a roadtrip. Had to pull over and remove it because the wind noise was so much worse from the doors not sealing at the b pillar. Any advice?

Thanks for the information, I will use this on a 2020 Rav4.

I have 2021 Tacoma Access Cab , sounds rear windows are down , of course they don't go down , I wonder if this would work for me..

I will be doing this later today on my 2021 trd pro tundra. Curious if your noise was a whistle, or more like loud ambience as if your window is down? Hard to describe but it’s just loud at higher speeds.

Nice shirt. 😂😂😂 collector’s item.

Im trying to find the new toyota part number you mentioned @ :23, just curious what they did different and what new clips were used. Where did you find that info?

Mine was the recirculation button 🤨that noise drove me nuts for months........they ran the fresh air vent to the back of my truck and when that button wasn't pushed it sounded like the window or door was open....felt a little stupid but did figure it out.

Like the shirt!

Thank you, great review. I have lexus it is quite 2017, but when I go on highway, I hear road and other noise. What do you suggest? Did your car become quite now

Is there a certain size of the weather seal? Like the width etc. I have the issue w/ a 13 Sequoia. Drives me batty!

Will this work on a 2023 Toyota Corolla i just bought? I noticed wind noise on my way home from the dealership.

What size "d" seal from TACO did you use? I see three different sizes on their website.

Hi there! Where i can buy that weather seal tape exsactly on the video.Thanks

I have a 2015 Tacoma access cab that makes that noise, kinda like a stretched balloon letting the air out. Happens when there is a strong cross wind from the direction of the front corners of the truck. I was gonna try putting door edge protectors on there to tighten the seal against the cab to stop the vibration. I may try your solution instead. Thanks brother!

hmm....road noise is terrible on my 3rd gen access cab ...wonder if this would help

Was it enough with that strip at the top or did you do the rest of the doors to get rid of enough noise? Would really appreciate if you could tell me so I don't buy to little or too much.

So you would recommend doing both the front and back doors? I only have wind noise coming from front door

Since installing the weatherproof seal, have you noticed the traffic/outside noise lessening? I just bought a Toyota Highlander ‘21 and wind & traffic noise unbearable. Dealer told me this is how car is made, so looking for a quick fix.

I got 2023 camry limited eddition, the noise is very annoying I hope you reply to me as the thing you have I have to order online to middle east! Is it helpful?! And why we have this problem and why the factory is not fixing it ?!

Do you find that while the howling noise is gone, the general wind and road noise is more since the rest of the door is not sealed as tightly? Have you tried putting this foam only on the affected area?

Will this work on a 2012 tacoma? Mine looks exactly like yours just the year difference 😁

I put a length of nylon rope behind the factory rubber door seal on my 2015 Tacoma, quick and easy. It fits in the groove of the rubber seal perfect, no clean up, no stick on, and completely hidden. It REALLY worked well.

I did not hear it stated, but I assume that one does both sides of the vehicle. Correct? Since it is difficult to know which side of the vehicle needs it, it makes sense to apply the window seal to both sides of the truck/car. Please amplify this issue. Thanks!

nice tshirt!

May I ask you about how efficient is it after 2 years? a lot has recommended me not to do it because it will make an extra space between the doors and the car’s body and then the noise will be a lot worse than before.

I called Toyota and there is a Technical Safety Bulletin 0170-16, however it is under warranty for the first 36 months or 3 years of purchase. They know there's a problem, but won't issue a recall. I'm doing this modification.

What is the make and size of the stripping used? Part number from Taco?

What is the sizing on that bag? My 2014 Taco has been doing that for years when there’s wind at higher speeds.

How long did the adhesive last until it starts to wear off if it ever did?

Hi, do you think 1/2"×1/2"× 10 will work ok.

Gonna try this on my 2016. Sounds like a kazoo when I encounter crosswinds. I hope this helps.

Hahaha the wife product substitution is golden

I have a buzzing noise but I dont think it's same as yours. when i crack the drivers window down 2" and apply pressure with my hand to the glass the noise goes away but when i apply pressure to the metal door frame it doesnt solve.

My 2014 4Runner does this on the passenger side. I’m going to give it a try and see if it shuts it up.

I have a 2019 Rav4 adventure and the wind noise is really bad. I tried your idea but it did not work. Air seems like it seeps through driver's door window and also a turbulent noise from the front of the rack. Do you have any suggestions?

Quick question, I have a 3rd gen and I hear wind noise starting at 40mph right from the corner of the driver window where the side mirror is mounted. I installed auto zone seal that’s like 5/8” thick but it didn’t solve the noise problem at all. Will this 1/2” seal help?

What size of seal do you use because they have different sizes?

Can this cause water to get it ? My carpet is damp, I can’t find the leak.

Do you have a video of you driving the truck at 70-80mph after you did this?

I take it the seal is D shape? Is it 1/2” wide or smaller? Also is the D about 1/2” thick/tall?

What if my Toyota Camry xse 2018 makes sound too???

I will try this in my Prius V

Does it work on any toyota cars? Or any other makes at all?

I need this for my RAV4!
