Road noise yes wind noise no. Hop in a Z and the road noise is worse. I did always think the G was a bit noisey for a higher end car but over all I loved the car. I could deal with a little road noise. Turn the stereo up and its gone.

Wow didn't know this is so common among the coupes. My driver window seal is dried up and squeaks every time the window comes into contact (rolling up/down) and now recently I'm getting wind noise coming through the seal by the tweeters FML. Calling Infiniti up this week to see if it can be replaced; any know if it falls under warranty? Least my passenger side is still good working order.

This used car thing is not for me.....The car is great but its been a few things that have made me not fully happy with the purchase.
I have a '10 coupe, when I'm driving I notice a rattle coming from the passenger side, I believe it is the passenger side seat belt. Specifically, but not specific, it is the piece of the seat belt that extends so that it fits right on the passenger and clicks into place...the seat belt arm?

If you take off the door panel there is an adjustment screw for the auto up/down when you open the door. You could try adjusting it to go up just a hair more. As far as the rubber seal around the window goes, you have to take care of them or they will deteriorate and create air noise.

The visual of you actually listening to a mouse peeing on a cotton ball just cracks me up

This and the sunglasses rattling in the overhead compartment were the only two rattles I've ever had in my 08 coupe. The only time I get wind noise is when I forget to fold out the rear view mirror when Im driving

The rear passenger fixed window is where my noise is coming from, a few guys on here have added some silicone between the seal and the window on the front and back portion, and it fixed it. Ive tried this but didnt do it right, I reduced the noise but now I want to redo it and make it completely quiet<--you should try this if you can pinpoint it to a window seal.
