mountains Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 havnt got roger whittaker locked in the boot have you [ sorry for pun] he whistles very badly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dominic.coles Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Checked for Roger in the boot !! it is definitely wind noise but not sure if it is passing through the wing mirror ..... I have heard that the the top window seal that pushed against the window as it moves up or down can have an effect. Anyone else had issues with the wind (in terms of the fast flowing over the car and bonnet at speed type, not the hold a lighter by your arse and light it type) ???

PetrolDave Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I have heard that the the top window seal that pushed against the window as it moves up or down can have an effect. I've had whistling like this when the seal at the top of the windscreen developed a small hole - at speed the air got blown through and whistled.

dominic.coles Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I will check it out for holes ... thanks for the tip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3geezer Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 If you have your air recirculation on - turn it off. I know you're thinking 'eh', but I get some whistling noises about 90+ but only if recirc is on, so perhaps try that if its turned on.
