Default Wind Noise Driver Side Window

New member, forgive me if this has been covered. I searched and could not find this exactly. Traded a c7 stingray for a c7 zo6. I'm getting a ton of wind noise on the driver side window. When I put my finger between the window and the sill it doesn't even feel very tight. When I lower the window to inspect, all looks well. I had wind noise with my stingray, but this is pretty terrible. Most of the time I have the windows down and top off, but if I go on a date with my wife this is not good.

Anyone experienced this and have a fix?

Thank you!

Have you tried to index the windows?

Programming the Power
Windows
Programming may be necessary if
the vehicle's battery has been
disconnected or discharged. If the
window is unable to express-up,
follow these steps to program the
window:
To program the window:
1. Close all doors.
2. Place the ignition in ACC/
ACCESSORY or ON/RUN.
3. Partially open the window to be
programmed, then close it and
continue to pull the switch
briefly after the window has
fully closed.
4. Press the power window switch
until the window is fully open
and briefly hold.

Window Indexing
When fully closed, indexing
automatically lowers the window a
small amount when the door is
opened. When the door is closed,
the window will raise to its previous
position. If either window does not
index properly, it could be due to
loss of power. Before seeing your
dealer for service, program the
power windows.

I don't have this problem but if I ever get it I'll try these instructions for indexing, thanks.

Thank you, I will look into this!

I've only had the car for 36 hours. But just now I went for a drive and it was gone, I could not feel a gap too. I think what's happening is the feature (I can't think of the name) where it leaves a small gap then goes all the way up after you close the door...May not be working. I rolled the window down, did the auto 1 touch up and it didn't close all the way. i had to do it a couple times to get it to fully close.
