I thoughy it was the rubber mouldings on the wing mirrors at first (visible when you open the door).

When the car went in at JZM for service i asked them put a new one on, but they said there was no need and just used a bit of silicone to re-stick the rubber down where it was lifting slightly.
Leading evidence: 'rubber mouldings' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'rubber mouldings' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Use bit of silicone' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Turned out it was the rubber surround on the front windscreen.

Suspected cause
I have a whistling window seal on my vcar, suspect its dried out with age, it only starts whistling at 110+ mph
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Had this on my Honda S2000, told girlfriend to keep her legs together and problem solved!!
Hi all
I have a 99 cab 00 with the hardtop on currently. As mentioned in my previous post its been great so far, except for:
1. the boot mechanism failing to shut (now works)
and
2. At motorway speeds I can hear a whistling noise coming from the offside. I thought it could be the aerodynamics over the hardtop causing the noise. Its not really loud but noticable.
Anyone experienced this or have any ideas?
Thanks
Jonny
I have a whistling window seal on my vcar, suspect its dried out with age, it only starts whistling at 110+ mph

Had a similar problem on my MY98 C2 at motorway speeds. Turned out it was the rubber surround on the front windscreen. Bit of adhesive at the base of the A-pillars to stick them back down did the job.
Taran :bandit:
This is very interesting Taran, I hadnt considered this. My surround is not quite as tight in a place or two as it was when mint...! hmm, could be this
How did you work that out btw?
Edward
Lol, was a mix of 'process of elimination' and some wise heads on 911uk! I thoughy it was the rubber mouldings on the wing mirrors at first (visible when you open the door). So i gaffer taped these taped these up, but no joy. Then one of the guys suggested new rubber for the screen. I had a look at mine and realised the rubber would lift when i pulled it up right at the base of the A-pillar. When the car went in at JZM for service i asked them put a new one on, but they said there was no need and just used a bit of silicone to re-stick the rubber down where it was lifting slightly. Job done, no complaints..nice and cheap too!
Taran :thumb:
I checked my seals yesterday ariound the drivers side of windscreen it is loose, so I wonder if its this, where can one buy silicon from, a tube presumably? Halfords?
Regards
Edward
