thanks for your kind reply

I have a 2007 Amanti and when I close the sliding headliner - all the
noise goes away

I'm not sure what model Kia you have but I have a 2006 Optima and have
been having wind noise problems on the front passenger side.  The
latest they told me is that it has to do with how the mirror is and
the wind is coming off of that and the way it's blowing across the
window.  This is the "determination" after they tried saying that the
glass was moving around and replaced that.

Don't have sunroof. Noise is from front windows.

Sorry if this offends you, but the best solution is to not get a vehicle
with a sunroof.  And part of that solution is for Kia/Hyundai to quit
equipping so many vehicles with them.

I have one on my '05 Sedona - it is silly and pointless, and makes it very
challenging to use the cartop as a luggage rack, etc.(by the time I wanted a
van, the only ones the dealer had left all had this on it).  But Kia/Hyundai
bundles their options now (like most automakers, especially foreign do), and
the sunroof is added into the option packages FAR earlier than it should
be - don't know why.

The next time you meet with one of the Kia reps, tell them that - unless of
course, the sunroof is what you really wanted.  In my world, most all
sunroofs will eventually cause problems if you have the vehicle long enough.

Nope. Had a visit by Field Tech Rep after District Rep was unsuccessful.
Tried several things, all without success. Kia is going to send next level
of Rep for evaluation. BTW, my 2006 Sportage has same problem and same
results.
