New car and loving it.

Hi there

Picked up my new RRS the other day and must say that after having had a Disco 3 and then a BMW and a Jag XF Sportbrake I have now realised how much I've missed driving a great car.

I've asked a couple of questions which some of the guys have helped me out with so thanks.

One thing I have noticed when driving the car the last couple of days is the wind noise. I get a wind noise which seems to come from the back of the car maybe passenger side door from what I can hear.

I know it's a big car and not the best aerodynamically but is this normal for this type of car.

Does anyone have he same issue and if so did you get it fixed.

Cheers Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Another ex-XF driver here, and yes, I like the RRS too.

No wind noise on mine, in fact it doesn't creak, squeak, or rattle at all!

Of course - now I typed that................... MY2016 HSE D SDV6 - gone due to fuel dilution problems.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

The wind whistle could be a window dropped a fraction, literally 1mm off the seals, drop each window and close fully and see if that makes any difference. I sometimes accidentally drop the rear driver's side passenger door window a fraction when I'm trying to open the driver's one and not looking at the switches. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW
