AGN Apr 30th, 2008 - 9:52 PM	Re: whistle Hmmm...does she have a hole in her upper lip? If you can't hear it or find a leak then how are you supposed to fix it. Maybe it is her haring aids ringing. LOL AGN
Sir Slam A Lot Apr 30th, 2008 - 10:21 PM	Re: whistle I was a Mortatman in the Marines and Also on the Divisional Rifle and Pistol team so my hearing sucks. I have been on countless drives with customers that had air noise (not all mine) and I just tell them I just cant hear it, but if you say it's there then I believe you...
Syd Apr 30th, 2008 - 10:40 PM	Re: whistle Check for the clips at the bottom of the A moldings. They have a tendency to come off and go bouncing down into the fender. Without them, a whistle is definately possible as we saw this happen before. (they slide into the bottom of the molding while clipping under the edge of the fender and the glass) P.S. They can be retrieved if that is the case.
snowdin Apr 30th, 2008 - 11:50 PM	Re: whistle I think that there is a hole in her lower lip. Sorry couldnt resist putting that jab in there after the upper lip one.
xs May 1st, 2008 - 5:51 AM	Re: whistle TRy removing the cowl and air test with air hose..I just read that you removed wipers but not the cowl to see if the seal has seperated from the bottom..........
HEY JOHN L May 4th, 2008 - 11:20 AM	Re: whistle most whistles come from the base check the gasket on the cowl between the hood & make sure it's secure then procede to the doors to see if they need to be adjusted tighter to the gasket. The other part that has made noise before is the after market molding check & see if it still sitting flush other then that stop assuming it's the glass 99% of the time it's not! unless your a top installer for the big guys.
CaptFubar May 4th, 2008 - 12:13 PM	Re: whistle I've had a few of these whistle through the side moldings. If they're not put down right, it'll whistle dixie all day long. I've seen the same thing with the Chrysler Pacifica.
ttech May 4th, 2008 - 4:05 PM	Re: whistle have not had this problem, but have had it on econoline vans. if the molding is to soft on the replacement w/s, air will travel form the bottom corner of the w/s up along the appliar and cause a humming noise fron the molding. i finally realized that is why ford place a small amount of silicone towards the bottom of the pinchweld. only happend a few we installed that had softer than normal moldings and during the wounderful summer months in the desert. i seen similar foam on honda moldings towards the bottom, even buytl type seal(fw 2064 and some odessy vans). that is prbably they applied it there. try it , it might help.
