Wind noises that bug the hell out of me.
Ever since I bought this truck it had some issues with wind noise. The worst one was a whistling noise when driving against the wind fairly fast. I finally tracked it down to the windshield upper weatherstripping (it leaked there too in the rain). I got some self leveling silicone sealant and slathered that **** all over the top between the roof and the rubber - nailed it! then I moved to the passenger door. I could hear it and it bothered anyone riding with me. I started a thread about this a while back but, as I said, I just want to consolidate all this stuff. Anyway, I looked at the weatherstripping where most of the noise was coming from and saw a dirt/dust streak around the top rear corner.
I bought some of this stuff at OReiley's
Cleaned the original seal and stuck it around the top of the door seal and a little below the door latch post - this is some sticky sh*t.
I drove around for a while - better but needs some more. So I went all the way around the front and bottom most of the way back until I ran out.
Drove around some more - much more better! So I went back to Oreilley's and got another roll (~$12 IIRC) and connected the 2 ends and called 'er good. For a while it took a little more force to close the door all the way but, now it closes just fine and no more wind noise, at least way less anyway - yay!
