2017 Mirage ES:
Just this week, I started hearing a high-pitched and very annoying amount of wind noise from the driver's side. I cannot figure out exactly where it's coming from. It is a whistle.
I know it's a bit vague, but has anyone else developed this?
Thanks.
I'm not sure. I know my Mirage whistles on the highway, and it's worse depending on the speed and weather conditions. I have read a few reviewers who note the annoying whistling in Mirage's, so some whistling is normal.
And I mean quite a lot of whistle noise at times in my 2014 Mirage, since day 1. If you think it's a door that isn't snug than that's something else.
Does the noise change if the window is opened a bit?
Yes I too have observed the noise from passenger side on highway when I was clocking 70+ speed. But not always. So it apparently is caused by the wind flow. thanks
One of the back windows down very slightly maybe?
didn't you change the side markers or something to a new style not long ago?
My 2019 has a load of wind noise but I attribute most of it to my universal aftermarket roof-rack.
The whistling comes and goes just as dspace9 pointed out. Wind and weather make a huge difference. I've actually had such bad headwinds at times the entire roof sounds likes its vibrating from the wind going around the rood rack. Once I've made a turn and the headwind is now hitting the side of the car or at an angle, that's when I experience the whistling more than ever!!

Considering Im knee deep in the propaganda war for subcompacts and JATCO CVTs. Just a thought for a new article, I enjoy your writing and yes I know you own the 5speed version lol.
