Weather strip is fine. All three of the Contour's I've owned have had a pretty bad howl coming from the middle of the A-pillar. If I put my hand on the interior trim panel and door frame at the right spot, it goes away.Maybe replace your weather stripping inside the doors. No wind noise from these cars that I know of.
Are you talking window down, or up. Mine is pretty quiet up, but it does have a pretty loud wind noise when windows are down on highway. I guess that's what amps are for. :laugh:
and just the general lack of sound deadening in typical economy cars.
I guess I've never noticed a specific wind noise upfront. The biggest noise issues with the cars I have found was tires, the KDW's are awful, and just the general lack of sound deadening in typical economy cars.

Thanks for that! I'll take a look into it.There is a TSB for this.... It pretty much says if the weather stripping isn't torn or ripped adjust the door so it seals better..
Maybe check the weather stripping if it is in good condition... If it is look at where it compresses when the door is shut. You can do this when the door is close by taking a notecard up and down the door... it should not slide real easy, if it does.... adjust the door.. adjust the door at your own risk!
Thanks for that! I'll take a look into it.

Nope, sure didn't. I think I can handle sticking a note card between the door and the frame, though!I don't know if you saw the pictures or not... Im not real sure why they aren't working now. :shrug:

Bottom line is it's not sealing around the front of the window frame like it's supposed to, no? I'll figure something out now that I know that could be the root of the problem.It was how to adjust the hinges... oh well, if it fails the notecard test, there is another test called the chalk test, buts its not necessary..
