Problem overview

Some Lexus NX200t owners report experiencing a wooshing sound after stopping and opening the door, which may indicate several underlying issues. This sound could be linked to the air conditioning system as it equalizes pressure when the door is opened. Additionally, problems with the exhaust system, such as leaks or faulty components, may also contribute to the noise. Some owners have identified a vacuum leak in the engine or other areas of the vehicle as a potential cause of the wooshing sound when stationary. Furthermore, issues with the air intake system, including a clogged air filter or malfunctioning components, could result in unusual noises at a standstill. It is recommended that owners experiencing this issue consult a qualified mechanic for a thorough inspection to diagnose and address the problem promptly, preventing further complications and ensuring smooth vehicle operation.
