    Its the the little A frame on the driver and passenger windows. Try putting some masking tape around the outside of the A frame. Wind noise will stop.

    My 2023 RAV4 has HORRIBLE wind noise from the triangular glass by the rear view mirror on the passenger side. Dealer replaced seals/glass and it got worse. Dealer then sealed the window with windshield adhesive and that got rid of 85% of it. I used electrical tape on the inside from the seal to the glass which helped even more. Passenger door itself is still noisier than the driver's. Might try additional weather strip.

      Can you please explain further what you mean by "sealed the window with windshield adhesive" ? Like covered the entire windshield? Along the edges? Thanks !

    And "no", I don't drive around with loud music playing, just in case anyone has a conjection.

      @@alexanderjames4109toyota builds these cheaply as possible. Soda can thin metal. No sound insulation. Try one of these vs a Mazda cx30. The cx30 is the same price if not cheaper and it's way quieter. Toyota could do something about it but they're too cheap to.

    Love Toyota and love my RAV4, but Toyota is not a luxury car brand. Like Toyota even has the Lexus brand, which is their luxury brand and a lot quieter than most Toyota's. So Toyota does focus on insulation, just like most auto makers. They do not do it for their generic brand.

    I have a brand new 23' RAV 4 And there is a ridiculous amount of wind noise at 45mph and above on the drivers side. I took it to Toyota, and the service manager took it for a test drive. He said, "Geez, that sounds horrible!" So, he asked me if I could wait for the first oil change,that way the service department can address the door issue at the same time. I'm okay with waiting, the air is coming in at the upper rear corner of the door. You can actually pull the corner towards yourself while driving and the wind noise stops completely. Nothing looks out of place when comparing it to the passenger side , so it will be interesting to see what it is.

      @alexanderjames4109 Definitely. This is the first hybrid that I have owned and there are all kinds of different sounds coming from the engine, little clunks and thumps. I was told that this is normal. The shift between the battery and the gas engine is noticeable at times, but I have gotten used to it, but my wife is always concerned that something is broken😄

      I just got a 2023 rav4 limited today, while driving it back home I noticed wind noise coming from the driver side window (top rear corner) its getting louder when I go above 60 mph. However when I put my hand cover around that area the wind noise stops, very annoying. Hopefully I will get used to it someday :(

  • @johngibberish4441

    I'm European, and with my standards this wind and engine noise is absolutely unacceptable. It's bearable under 110 km/h (68 mph) but driving on speedways at and above 130 km/h (80 mph) is a pain with the rav4. Plus if you wanna stay in the fast lane you must be able to drive 150 km/h (93 mph) or more. This car cannot handle speed. The problem is not just the wind: the engine being not only noisy but also vibrating the whole car.

  • @love2huntbooks2

    No offense to the content creator, I know they mean well but the door weather stripping barely makes any difference. The problem happens because of 1) the giant door mirrors and 2) there's a passage from the hood to the door sill which is covered by a plastic flap which channels wind into the door sill area. I don't have a roof rack, but even then the wind noise when I drive on the I-5 gives me the thousand yard stare. I've even considered putting on noise cancelling headphones while driving it. I love everything else about the car but the wind noise, is just a shame. Will be trying wind deflectors from WeatherTech as the last resort.
