Got a buzzing noise from window near seal

370zBoyz · 08-12-2021, 12:43 AM

Driver side window right near my ear has an annoying buzzing sound

If I tap the window switch down just a little to lower the window the buzzing stops

Any idea on what to look at to see what might be causing this?

I'd try some weather seal restorer first. This should cuase the seal to expand slightly and become more supple.

If that doesn't work, try adjusting the window.

inside the door?

Check the guides. May need some grease or replacement. I was having this issue on several of my M3 windows. I replaced the guides for the front windows and lubed the ones on the rear windows and no more noises.

Towards the roof where the window moves half an inch up once the door is closed
