Fellow side curtain drivers I have a whistle in my Bugeye that starts at 45 mph and goes away at 60 mph. This is a whistle that sounds like it is coming from the right side. The top is off and no sid

Had this on the Esprit. Also suspected antenna (it was a little car phone antenna), tried lots of tricks to no effect. Took off antenna, problem gone. 'Course on the Lotus it kicked in at 80 and wen

What about switching the right front wheel with the left front to see if the whistle moves to the other side of the car? If so, then at least you know that it's coming from the wheel.

You said its somewhere in the right front, could the whistle be coming from those "expensive" center hubs you installed on your new wheels? One of those chain link fence post tops could be causing i

Got a quick question for you. Are you sure it is speed related and not rpm related? I only ask because my alternator fan whistles at 2700 - 3200 rpm. I determined that when I had no alternator and wh

This whistle is defiantly speed related. It gets louder and higher pitched with speed, no change with rpms. Like Biff said, it could be the "aerodynamics of my fence post caps that I am using as whee

If you think it is the wheels you could try to make a 4 of smooth hubcaps from some stiff cardboard and either duct tape or racers tape. I would cut the cardboard to cover the entire rim and tape int

I had a loud whistling noise coming from a former British car. Turned out to be the luggage rack. Only did it in moderate side wind conditions. Something else to think about. Daniel58612

FWIW, I have a similar whistle with my car. I have wire wheels, windows, and no antenna. I do have wing-mounted mirrors, but it seems to be coming from the vicinity of the vent windows. It inconvenie
