Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 21y 9m 21d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 12/09/03 01:24 AM Share Posted 12/09/03 01:24 AM Smack on 100kmph there is a whistling noise it seems to come from the small side windows, not at 95 not at 105 only 100. The only reason it annoys me so much is because it's most noticable at a speed I frequently sit on, if it was at 120 or 90 I would care less.Asked my dealer about it on the 3000km service and they said it's normal. Has anyone else noticed this? If so have you had it fixed and how?Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's if I can sit on 100 for long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the whistle all to well .... for me it was/is in that piece of "plastic" immediately behind the door....it sometimes sits snug to the car ... no noise ..... with a abit of sun it sometimes pops up and acts as a scoop .... whistle-mania ...my driver side does it badly .....down with the door window (at speed) and bang relentlessly with right hand till the hand hurts or the whistle stops .... or till the electric window motor burns out ... as you check if the whistle has stopped .....that bit of plastic has been bugging the AU guys too :lol:or turn up the CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to see the dealer about it to find out if it was the diff. after reading this I will just wait till the 3000km inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charliewool Member 375 Member For: 22y 25d Location: Melbourne Posted 15/09/03 12:48 PM Share Posted 15/09/03 12:48 PM I had this on my AU... Ending up pulling the placky bits off ( they only clip in) & putting a bead of silastic on them, then pushing back on. The Pursuit doesn't whistle as yet , even though identicle mouldings as the AU. THAT could also be the growl of the Zorst drowning out all else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, might have to investigate further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
