Windshield whistle at 85+ mph
Hello... Posted this in another forum... reposting here. This might help you replicate the noise for your dealer (haven't had a chance to visit mine yet...so I don't know if there is a DCX fix for it)...
**********
I've had the same problem at 85+ mph. Especially frequent on windy days or when overtaking large vehicles (cross-wind/buffeting). High pitched whistle (sounds like a tea pot...or morse code...exactly) comes and goes.
Just yesterday I found a way to re-create the sound ON DEMAND while driving. Find a nice open road with no cops, get up to 85-90, and then apply moderately firm pressure with your right hand to the inside of the windshield. You'll want to press right along the top edge of the windshield...in the center...basically just in front of the rear-view mirror along the black edging of the windshield. Works every time for me... the longer I apply pressure, the longer I get to hear the tea pot. Now that I can (finally) recreate the problem, my dealer's going to need to find a way to fix it.
Hope this helps others. Post again if anyone gets a resolution from your dealer.
