Well, took my car back for the whistling sound in my window.

As many of you know I have a whistling sound in my passenger side window. Its the problem a lot of people on here has.

Well, they know about the sound, they said they have an idea of where its coming from, but they needed the car for a day or so.
They said they might have to take apart the whole door, but
I told them its no big deal, and I will take care of it when I get my first oil change.

STC (and others with this problem)

Look under your side view mirrors - you will see three screws - one near the "outside" and two right next to each other towards the "inside"/nearest the car.

On my car, the two that are together are covered with a clear plastic label. I'm wondering if that was a "modification" to stop the wind noise. Instead of whistling off the screws, the plastic label covers them and the wind doesn't whistle.

I noticed these labels the other day and since I don't have the whistling noise - maybe that's why!

Cool

Week old SSM TSX, no rattles, no whistles, 600 miles.

Checked and the little stickers are on inside screws on both mirrors.
