Default mirror gap/wind noise

Does anyone know if the gap that forms at the top of the wing mirror housing due to the rubber seal shrinking, or is it from the plastic warping? I've started getting a wind noise from this mirror. Figure I can fill it with black RTV, but if the rubber seal is the issue might price new ones for the front.

Hi m,

You're on the right track - Jim C resolved the problem on his X350 with RTV per the S-Type TSB on the same problem:

Door Mirror Wind Noise

Here's a link to Jim's thread:
