@ speeds I get wind noise from drivers door
@ around 90mph I start to get quite a bit of wind noise, its hard to describe a bit like the windows not quite closed. My old S2 used to do the exact same thing just from the passenger door? Any ideas??

check the alignment of the door first if its out then...
open the door, close the window, standing on the inside face of the door and putting your knee on the top left hand corner of the door card, pull the frame towards you bend the frame of the door in VERY slightly
DONT GO HEAVY HANDED repeat if necessary

You normally get this wind noise at speed if the door slightly sticks out further than the A-pillar (when looking at the front of the car)
The faster you go the more the door tries to open up letting air in and causing a wind noise.

You need to replace your wind deflectors and a new door seal. I need to replace my driver side door seal, the passenger side is spot on, no wind noise even at 160. So I have been told lol
