Buffeting at 45MPH
Has anyone had a successful fix for this problem? Mine is going in again tomorrow for this and was hoping someone had it repaired so I can tell the dealer.
They still insist they never heard of this problem.

My initial thought was that it seemed like a build up of air pressure, but the two most recent times I kept it going for a bit and now am wondering if it's a low resonance problem, like maybe a bearing or something. The lower the frequency the less directional the sound is and the more it is simply felt rather than heard (I use to be a sound engineer and we'd sometimes get newbies to take a seat on a subwoofer for a chat and then put an 11 hz mod tone in it. Most lasted about 90 seconds before rushing to the can).
