2024 Tesla Model Y — windshield replacement created a highway whistle — Washington DC owner question

BoxerHunter130Community StarterJul 24, 20262024 Tesla Model Y Long RangeWashington DC
2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range, about 29,000 miles. A windshield was replaced and now there is a whistle around highway speed that did not exist before. Glass looks seated. Any simple way to locate the air leak before taking it back? If I figure it out I will update the thread. I am trying not to assume the first explanation I see online.

Ask what changed right before it started. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2024 Tesla Model Y and see if the fault moves. That's the branch I'd chase this week. This is from a 2024 Tesla Model Y in Washington DC with 29,000 miles. I'd want a dollar figure or a measured spec, not 'should be fine.' If this is nothing, great. I want that in data.

I hear you, though I'd still want a second check. If a shop can't duplicate it on the 2024 Tesla Model Y, bring a video plus freeze-frame data, not just a story. If the cheap test changes it, stop and reassess. Do that first. I'd rather be boring and correct. Might be overthinking it, but I'd rather overthink than overspend.

Checked the easy stuff on the 2024 Tesla Model Y and found one clue worth chasing before I book a shop. Not driving it hard until I know more.

Start with the test that can prove you wrong. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2024 Tesla Model Y and see if the fault moves. Don't erase codes until someone who can help has seen them. This is from a 2024 Tesla Model Y in Washington DC with 29,000 miles. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. That's my plan before I call anyone.
