2011 S4 Prestige Wind Noise
I read a thread a while back about cabin wind noise on 2011 S4 Prestige. I hear pretty bad wind noise at about 50-60 MPH, I told the dealer and they said they test drove other S4's and had same problem. Anybody with 2011 still have this?

Need more info:
Windows up?
Roof poped (tilted) open?
Roof opened to the "comfort" setting?
Roof ALL the way opened (hold the dial against the spring return)
Some or all windows down?

I call BS on that, there is no wind noise to speak of much, in fact you will get more ROAD noise from the 19's on anything other than new blacktop than you will from wind at 50-60MPH.

1 person complained, 1 person sort of echoed same. there is no difference between 2010 and 2011. It's not wind cabin noise.
The S4 was measured as one of the quietest cars tested for 2010.

I have say I notice quite a bit on the driver side. Have not sat on passenger side yet (won't let anyone else drive it 
it was one of the first things I noticed driving on the highway, say over 50mph. Much more noise than my 2002 A6 that I traded in for the S4. I guess that wind noise is not a common problem then?
