Default Wind Noise finally resolved

All four rubber seals around my doors are replaced. Sounds like a different car...not a lexus, but very close to a buick! Seriously, big drop in wind noise.
Side note for another discussion. How many tire sensors have you guys been through? I have had like 8 replaced in a little over a year and a half!

My left-rear sensor is shot. Will be the first one replaced in 22,000mi (year & 1/2)

Congrats on getting the wind noise issue resolved. Did they give you a hassle? Was there a service bulletin on that problem?

I got 28K now, and my left front has given me 5 failures triggering the "Service Tire Pressure Monitoring Sytem" on my DIC last weekend.

They go away after a while - getting it checked out next week.

I'd like to know as well, if I need to just inform the service dept. or raise hell.

Congrats. I had mine in for repair and still wind noise coming from the passenger side only. Taking it back in when my parts come in for the FOB issue. BTW, that may be the tire pressure sensor issue.

Yeah, the keyless and tire pressure system use the same receiver and antenna, so one will be related to the other.

had to call gm and complain about the wind noise. they then instructed the dealership to replace all four seals. It was my left front that went out the most, but all sensors have gone out at least once. No problems with keyless range however
