Weird Noise at high speeds
Last weekend I was on the highway and everytime i went past 100 there was a really loud squeaking/ sqealing type of noise. I couldnt tell where it was coming from?
Im guessing its either from the wheels (rims?, i have the standard 18s) or the windows somewhere ? I check if all the windows were shut properly which they were.
The noise went away at like 130+ but everytime i passed 100 it started again?
Has this happened to anybody else? What could it be?
I hope i dont have to take my car in till the next service in 2000 mi.

Were there flashing lights in your rear view mirror? If so, I think I know where the sqealing was comming from....

I thought I read on here that the 08 and 09 mirrors caused
wind noise at high speeds and thats why the 2010 mirrors
were redesigned.
I could be wrong though.
