Newbie ... bought 2015 DB9 ... wind sound

I am a newbie .. just bought a 2015 DB9. I noticed that when driving wind sound coming from the windshield. I thought it might be AC or fan. So turned off both and noticed the sound still coming. Not sure whether it is coming from the plastic vents all the way near windshield. Any suggestions on what I can check ?

Congrats on your new car. If it's a brand new 2015, I would just take it to the dealer for warranty work.

P.S. Forum etiquette dictates that you must include a picture of your car in your first post.

Nice. I think that's the first DB9 I have ever seen with black window trim.

Very very nice, These come with an owners ear to ear grin . The grin is not optional, its' standard equipment - Did you get yours? Somehow it happens every time you look at your car. Enjoy !

A quick update on the wind noise ...
AM Service pressurized cabin and found air leak in front corner of passenger door mirror. They applied butyl gum to seal it. Now both sides are making huge noise.
Due to the traffic conditions, they couldn't do a road test. I also noticed rattle coming from passenger side vents :-(
I have to schedule another appointment :-(

Reviving this thread started by me more than 5 years back ...
Recently windnoise got worse. Seals around the exterior mirrors are kind of deformed. I replaced both of them with new OEM seals. To my surprise, the noise got even worse wirh new seals. Got hold a leaf blower and blowed air around the new seals. Sitting inside, on passenger side noticed air was rushing in from corners and applied some butyl tape. Now 90% of the noise is gone.
Anybody having this issue with their AM and any suggestions to fix ?
