whistling when over 30mph



  monaco 172
Anybody else get this in a 182?

Im fairly sure its something to do with the way air is hitting the car around the wing mirror or something?

Only does it when i get above 30mph, its not engine related as it still does it if i take it out of gear.

I get this too.

I was paranoid thinking it was a wheel bearing. Mike at Rentech "diagnosed" the wing mirror, Fold in your driver wing mirror...see if it does it then.
 
The strip around the windscreen is the normal culprit where it starts to come away.

Mine does it, normally after its been cleaned i manage to move the screen trim in the top left hand corner. Push it back and its gone again.

its under the wing mirror, ul feel a hole, its just the wind making the whistle, i was paranoid for months before realising what it was, some one prev on here said put silicone in it to stop it

Windscreen wipers are another thing to check.

My flat wipers don't quite make contact with the glass at one edge. Air going under the gap makes a lovely whistle while im driving along.
