Default Whistling noise coming from the car?

I test drove a completely stock 2002 ap1 the other day and it would have a very faint whistle when crusing. Could this be a major issue I should look out for?

Can you hum a few bars for us?

Seriously, have a look at what you posted. You really think that's enough detail for anyone to give you even the most wild of guesses?

The noise that you were referring to is normal. I actually like it. Wait untill you install an intake, the noise becomes more profound.

Well since you know so much, why dont you just give me the most common causes of whistling in the car?

Im sure there are not that many.

So all this time you've been trolling around here and you don't even own an S2000? Do a search as this has been discussed thousands of times.

But now that the humidy has gotten above 50%, it has all but gone completely away. But my Comptech does make it much louder..... but it seems to be louder in the colder months.

I can cite you 1/2 a dozen things it "could" be because what you call a "whistle" may be anything. It is this very reason, that I rarely do "noise" questions unless it is accompanied by detailed and exact information.

You should make sure the salesman in the passenger seat was not the cause of this 'whistling' noise

So owning an s2000 is a prerequisite to post on this site? And the Darwin award goes too........




BTW, I've searched but the search function seems to work improperly (either that or whistle is a bad search term).
