Re: Slide whistle sound
You are not crazy! I have this exact same problem! I have found it to be so distracting that I am seriously considering trading the car in for a normal Civic even though it would cost me.
I notice that the sound is more common when it is 80 degrees or hotter outside and if the car has spent anytime in the sun (like in the parking lot while I am shopping). If the car is inside a parking garage all day, I rarely notice it.
It happens at highway speeds, when stopped, 3-cylinders, 6-cylinders, and no-cylinders. I happens with the radio on/off, AC on/off, adn the windows up/down.
Now, I hear it almost always from the front of the car. It usually moves when it occurs starting on the left or right side and moving to the other side. I have sometimes heard it directly to the lower left as if from the wheel well. I ahve sometimes heard to come from the far right front of the car.
Sometimes it lasts four or five seconds and can be very loud and sometimes it lasts half-a-second and is soft.
Help!
