Default New Noise??

Ok after searching the forums for a while I am going to post this. I hear a qhistling sound almost like the wind is whistleing past my window while I drive. I have rolled down the window and it is still there. I dont know if the wind is making that noise going around something else on the car or not. The sound is only heard when i am going over like 35 or so. No one in the passenger seat can make out where it is coming form either. Does anyone else have this problem? It is not very loud but kinda annoying. It also does not do it all the time it just kinda starts sometimes.

By the way I have the 06 base model with no popcharger..

Hmm sounds like the same thing I have maybe.

Can you basically only hear it when your seated in the normal driving position?

What I mean is, If you try to move your head around to pinpoint where it's coming from, does the sound disapear?

When you hear it, does it sound like it's coming from the headliner where your driver side vanity mirror/ sun visor is at?

Does it kind of sound like wind blowing a loose seal loose on the windshield weather stripping?

When I first heard it, I was driving down the freeway. At first I thought it sounded like there was a piece of tape on the windshield blowing around in the wind.

That's one of the ones I have.

It's not loud but getting more so. It started at about 11,000 miles

Maybe it is a base thing HAHA:-(
