Excess road noise?

[vance16805]

I'm noticing I'm getting a little extra wind and road noise through the front driver side door. I noticed it even more after I let my friend drive and I was in the passenger seat which didn't have the same noise thru that door. Sounds like part of the seal isn't meeting up, but all the seals look good to me.

Through the door or window? I haven't experienced any leaking noise on mine.

Get it replace under warranty. Shouldn't be any noise whatsoever.

Honestly it's so hard to tell. I hear it right next to my ear but can't pin point it.

Yeah question about that. I just moved and I'm much closer to a much much bigger kia dealer. Would they cover my car, the warranty and the extension I got from the other dealer, even if I purchased it from another dealer?

Yes, your factory warranty is covered by all Kia dealers regardless if you purchase the car from them. Curious what kind of extended warranty did you get?

Also did you check the moonroof to make sure its closed all the way?

No moon roof. I'll have to look at the paperwork. They gave me something a little extra can't render exactly what it was, as incentive to walk out with the car

If it sounds like a leak or something isn't sealed, shouldn't be that way. If it's just excessive noise, the Stinger is pretty loud. I think 72 dB if I recall correctly at highway speeds. That's loud for a car produced in today's society, especially in a car costing what the Stinger does.

The only review reading I've seen is 69db. Can't remember where I saw that. I've been surfing all the Stinger videos while waiting for my car.

The wind noise from the driver's door was the most surprising thing I found when test-driving. The car I actually purchased was different and has similar noise level.

Car and driver had it at 71dB, sorry for the wrong info. I remember comparing it with my G35 that was 67dB at 70 mph. A 10 year old car that doesn't cost as much but it's quieter? Come on Kia

I hear that noise but there is another that stands out from it that I'm talking about. Sounds like (but still hard to tell while driving) that's it's coming from the bottom rear corner of the driver side window which is right next to my shoulder

I get more noise from the hatch area than the door/window. Wouldn?t hurt to have the dealer take a look if it?s bothering you.

I might be way off here but do you have the model with the seat fans and were you using them when you heard the noise. The reason I suggest that is I was hearing a similar noise on occasions and found it was caused by the seat ventilaion

No seat vents only heated and I made sure everything was off to get a good listen

Honestly not sure exactly what this states but this is what I was handed when he told me there giving me some sort of "extra coverage"

United States Warranty Corp. provides gap insurance, you can buy similar coverage from your own insurance company.

Might depend on whether you are in Sport mode with exhaust note enhancement. I find it rather amusing that people are spending hundreds to add intake and exhaust add-ons to make more noise and then complaining about noise.

Lol thankfully I didn't pay a penny for it, would be beating myself up if I did. I have off Wednesday I'm going to try to schedule to bring it in.

I've not heard anything like that. But I'll try to pay more attention in the future.
