Recently got my A8Q (actually I'm the fellow who "Cameron" wrote about who was driving around on the west side of Madison, WI in miserable blizzard conditions on his first day of driving the new car)... Well, I've now driven the car at more appropriate (ie, not parking lot) speeds on the interstate and notice a hissing sound of air entering car near top of drivers window at speeds above 35-40 mph. I've tried the usual things of trying to reseat the window up and down several times and visually inspected the rubber seals but certainly am not any expert on how these components are actually fabricated. Well, any suggestions would be welcomed...naturally, I eventually get to the dealer with the issue if it persists.
Thanks, MJC

You will need a tip in adjustment, will have to be tightened. Only a dealer can do this and don't rest until they get it right. Sometimes it takes a few tries.
