Toaster shaped car meets a heavy cross wind. Sound track ensues.

Driving the Forester in St Charles county with 30mph cross winds. Makes this lovely harmonic whistle sound. Maybe bigger speakers are in order.

Mine did that too. I thought it was because I had the windshield replaced and they didn't seal it properly.

Mine did it with the OE windshield (replaced since then) so I'm not sure that's all of it. I'm tempted to try a hood bug shield to break up the air flow.

Dude, it's a ridiculous noise. I can't even believe that really happens.

Head wind is ok. Cross wind is the killer.

Brutal. Just drive straight upwind or downwind. That thing got off-road tires? =P

Nope. Eagle GT sport tires (love these, RIP...)

It's not a tire noise, it's a wind noise in the front right corner of the car near the base of the windshield. Never happens in a headwind.
