Just got a new coupe with same issue on drivers side. Very annoying. I will let you all know if I find a fix, and I will try the window reset.

I know this is a little older post. But did anyone even ever found out the solution? I took my car to safelite thinking it was the glass shield that was making the wind noise. Turns out I found it was the rubber seal that sits on the top of the door / top of the side mirror. This piece was BARELY ripped. I haven't replaced it yet, but for mines it's for sure in that area. I had him ride with me and from the inside if he pushes the rubber seal back and forth you can hear the wind change/close. I'll take pictures later to show.

Took some pictures like I said.

Here you can see the small rip, its really small and it was even tough for me to find..I had to feel around just to see it.

Far away pic so you can tell what I'm looking at. It's right on the front edge of the window/top of the side mirror.

I did some testing. I decided to tape it up with black tape temporarily to see if it would help.

And wow it's not completely cure but it is WAY better already. I'm going to call the dealer to see how much that rubber seal cost. Hopefully it doesn't wrap around the entire door. I'm so surprise how much wind noise this lets in from that TINY cut.

I put electric tape on it before but it made no difference.

I had the same issue, but it only happened once during a strong crosswind from the left to right affecting my passenger window. It's still under warranty, so I'll let them work on it next time it's serviced.

I have the same issue also exactly at 80 MPH or above. My car is at the dealer right now, they called me and said that the windows are too far off track and they can't fix it under warranty... does this sound correct or are they trying to make a buck off of me? My car is a 2010 coupe

If you still have warranty, this is a warranty issue, unless you adjusted the windows yourself and f'd it up.

If they "got too far off track" on their own, then it is a fault and has to be under warranty anyway.

I purchased the car used so they are saying I have to go back to where I purchased the car from, which is not an infiniti dealer. So I should fight to have them fix it?

I purchased a used 09 coupe and this happens on the driver side window. The car had definitly been tinted before, and who ever removed the tint didnt know what they were doing because they scratched the window. hopefully this wont be an issue if I ask infiniti to resolve it.

So my local stealership said they couldnt do it under warranty. Called consumer affairs and theyre going to send me a gift card to cover the cost of repairs... guy I spoke with said he has no idea why they are refusing to cover it under warranty.
