I can take a picture with cellphone and upload later. But it sounds like you might have noise that is related to something else. It's been some days now since I fixed mine and I am still noise free. When wind blows HARD, I think I hear very faint noise but I think I had that in my MB E class as well, can't quite remember though.

I have the same type of wind noise. Mine is not loose as you describe.

I see a lot of people say they have the noise and many don't. I wonder if the people who have the noise have door edge guards?

I had the noise before my mirror film was put on, but the door edge guards were on when I purchased the car. I also have the film under the door handle.

After a couple of trips to the dealer with wind noise complaints, and a couple of test drives over different types of roads with the tech, I'm convinced my wind noise is from the Dunlop tires on my car. I'll be happy when I can replace them with some Michelins. That seems to be the solution for some drivers.

FYI, to those that say *all* GS's have this "wind noise", my GS had less wind noise than my LS. I remember it from my 400 and 430, at highway speeds you do hear some wind noise, its almost like the rest of the car is so quiet thats what gets through. Didn't have that in the GS.
