My door seals are driving me nuts with that crackling noise as you drive over not so smooth roads is there anything to apply to it ? or do i have my dealer install new ones .. also my moon roof makes this wind noise at high speed , is this normal in all e60's ? i know i know slow down it will go way lol maybe im too picky. thanks

I've got an appointment with Stevens Creek BMW to fix my door seals too. I've denied that it existed for the longest time until my530i drove my car last week and told me my seals are defective. I was doing so well denying the obvious.

You mean they do have new seals available now? so that means if i take in now i will get the new design seals with non crackling noise... thats great, did anyone here had them installed? thanks
so check in the US to see if itis the new parts and not old.
or better still order the 2007 part then you know it will be new.
