C7 Noise Issues
I have a 2015 C7 that I got in October. Two issues I have with the car right now is the roof makes noise every time I go over a bump and I hear air noise coming from the drivers side window while driving.
I told the chevy service center about this and they were like the roof we cant do anything about it, chevy doesn't have a fix for it and then for the window, they were like every c7 has this and is not an issue.
Do you all have the same issues? If so was your service center able to fix it? Also, are there any tips or tricks I can do to fix this?
Thanks,

re the noise, check the vertical rubber door seal and you might find that it bends out of shape when you close the door; I've been manually adjusting it (straightening it out before I close the door and its helped a great deal.

Sounds par for the course - unfortunately.

I had both of these issues. I fixed the noise going over bumps by tightening the rear latch on the roof. Here's a thread that explains it pretty clearly.

I also brought it for a warranty repair for the faulty GPS and they fixed the seal that was causing the wind noise over my right side. It's still there but much, much better now.

Great. I didn't do anything besides turning the hook and it fixed mine. I did end up turning it two full revolutions though because I still noticed occasional popping after one turn. The trick is to really get it all the way loose with the Allen wrench before you try to turn it. You kind of have to loosen it farther than you'd think would be necessary.

I also have wind noise from driver side window right behind my ear.... I found the rubber seal was fold into the seat belt cover thing. I pulled the rubber seal out but it has already shape as if it supposed to fold like that. I plan to use heat gun to heat it up a little to see if it will fix itself.
