Wind Noise (I know...)
I know this has been asked and that a DIY solution is posted in ther FAQ section but I'm looking for a definitive answer. Has Audi developed a dealer-installed fix? I've got turbulence from both left and right mirrors.

Yes, I had my driver's mirror replaced.
Basically the new mirror is just like the old one except with a strip of black "sponge-like" material attached between the mirror and the window (exactly the same place as the FAQ tells you).

Dealer fix
Dealer will install free (under warranty) gasket for outside driver's mirror that may help the problem. I don't know if they can do the same for passenger mirror. This procedure definitely reduced my Avant's wind noise, but did not eliminate it.

Covered by warranty. There is a TSB for the fix. See link inside.
