    Default Door Wind Noise

    I recently bought an 06 XLII. The door has wind noise. Even when I hold the door tight and lock it, it has varying degrees of wind noise. Annoying for such an expensive purchase. Any suggestions experienced owners out there?

    I have the same problem (just not on an XLII) The previous owners(s) cobbled a bunch of different weather striping materials around the door seal. It work most of the time until I get into a cross wind (however it does look terrible). I purchased a new set of OEM weather strip directly from Prevost. I have not installed it yet (hopefully in the next few weeks). I may also investigate if I can get the air lock to pull the door in tighter if that does not cure the problem. Last place to look will be the hinges. I suspect they can be adjusted but I'll have to remove a bunch of trim to get to them. Hopefully I won't need to dig that far.

    I have to have my little window open on the drivers side when I close it for it to seal tight. To much pressure in the bus.

    I have replaced the seal but that did not fix it until Liberty adjusted the door.

    I had the same issue a couple years back. I happened to be attending a small gathering of prevost's in Colorado {fat beagles were a no show) anyway Scott Parks also attended with his family, great folks. Scott at the time worked at Prevost Mira Loma (sp*) he was able to very quickly make some adjustments to the door that resolved the issue.
    Long way of saying that someone with the knowledge and experience can fix the problem.

    Patrick, What ever happened to Scott Parks. His wife used to post often.

    Jim,
    Been wondering on that myself, haven't seen anything from them for a long time. Maybe became to busy?
    We enjoyed our time spent with them.
    Don't know if Scott is still at Prevost or not I do know he was highly respected as a Prevost tech.

    Hey what was the answer, Fosters summer place or DeSilvas winter home?

    Patrick, I don't think we had a winner. Maybe it was Dator's out West home.
