procedure to check if there are any other noise source.

5. If no others are found, the last remaining tape is the only 

source.

6. Cut the remaining piece of tape into smaller pieces, attach it 

again as it was before, and then remove the pieces one by 
one to narrow down the source.

7. Check that wind noise occurs when the last remaining tape 

is removed, and that noise does not occur when it is 
re-attached.

8. When the source(s) of the wind noise is finally located, 

attach butyl tape, body sealer or similar material to obstruct 
this source as much as possible.
