Passenger side whirling sound

hi all

i have a c180 thats just started to go weird on me i ve got this annoying sound that only happens when i drive the car its like a whirlling sound coming from the passenger side if i put my clutch in and coast to a junction it will go away and if iam at a stand still and rev the car their is no noise only happens when i press the accelotor and the car is moving

its weird i dont think its anything to do with tha AC as i ve read the thread on that and my cars AC works fine

any help much appreciated

cheers

Is it louder with the p-side window open? Maybe it's a piece of plastic inside the fender rubbing against the tire. Pretty hard to trouble shoot "whirling" sounds in a forum.

Have you checked for stuck stone in tire treads or screw?
