I think I know what you are talking about, it kind of sounds like a mild hissing flutter sound that matches the engine's rpms and is ALWAYS there. My 03 has it. It's prety faint, so I assumed all was good. I only hear it with the top up at low speeds, otherwise it can't be heard above all the other noises.

Does anyone else have this?
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's me!!

Yeah I'm pretty sure, without an educated ear to listen to it. Yours doesn't seem to be the "typical" sound though. Hope it does the trick for you.

Happy Holidays!

It's more like 10 minutes of labor, going slowly.

Good luck!
