Noise when hitting 70 mph?
 

Sounds wind related and coming from the front of the car. But not 100% sure.
Below 70 it does not do it.

Any thoughts or experience?

Thanks

Can you descibe the noise?

High pitch noise almost like something is vibrating.
Starts low at 70-75 and gets louder then if I take my foot off the gas it stays ther until I drop below 60mph. Seems to be coming from lower windshield. Wipers on or off, does not affect it.
Took a look under there and made sure nothing was loose.
There are multiple philips screws at the base of the windshield but they all just turn and turn with no bite?

Thanks

Is it noise that seems to get louder then softer, repetitively?


Any flashing lights associated with it?


Like this?

Do a search for wiper issues on the board. I've read before that the wiper can be the cause of a noise at high speeds.

I thought of that and I turned on the wipers when I heard the noise and there was no change. You would think it should change or go away as the wipers change there dirrections if that is the problem.


Thanks

It might be a geo metro stuck under the grill. :) just a thought

What mine was.

Where your symptoms the same as mine? At high speeds?

Only at high speeds and from the front end.
