In fact do the adjustment first and then using some gummi pflege afterwards to keep the rubber from drying out.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a very annoying whistling noise from passenger side door, which occurs at high-ish speeds (motorway cruising). It tends to get worse once the passenger has opened/closed the window, but it's always there. Is the only way to fix this to buy a very expensive piece of rubber from Porsche, or does anyone have any other ideas? Any tips for replacing it?

POST 3Original post

Agreed, buy some gummi pflege and treat the old seal and then adjust the glass properly. It is a 6mm socket from memory. 2 cups on the bottom of the door. Pop them off and adjust the screw. You want it so the window runs parallel with the b pillar to start with and then the other one, which adjusts how much the top of the window comes into the door seal, done up so you can only just not pull a piece of paper out between the seal and the glass. In fact do the adjustment first and then using some gummi pflege afterwards to keep the rubber from drying out.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

great tip, thank you, will do when the hail stops...

POST 5Original post

This would usually occur after a window reg replacement .. Whilst you can adjust at the base this will only slightly push the glass into the seal .. I would have the door card off .. remove the 2 rubber bungs at the top then slacken the X2 T 30 torx .. wiggle the glass to break the seal on the mechanism then raise the rear and a bit less at the front . Compare with the drivers side for gaps .. to far backwards and you WILL get noises . I close and open the door with card off to check gaps .. when happy i refit the card . If this has started with no window reg replacement .. then i suspect play in the window reg is stopping the glass reaching full height .. Try opening the door and see if you can raise or lower the glass by hand .. you should not be able to do so more than a mm or 2 .
