The outside mirror housing was cast hollow to save weight. It is possible that at certain speeds the mirror housing may whistle. To correct this condition, a seal, Part Number 944 731 143 00 should be installed. Install mirror seal in the following manner.
1) Cut seal at position "A".
2) Avoid damaging painted surfaces. Use a suitable plastic tool or a flat screwdriver with a taped blade.
3) Position mirror as per Photo 1.
4) Start seal from below, working in at positions 1 and 3 as per Photo 2. Use care not to damage sealing lip.
The new seal will be installed in production.
