There you go.

My 04 does it at just over 90. It's the driver's side front window. It can sound like a buzzsaw, fart or whistle.

try searching, it's a well documented scooby fact..! IMHO down to the frameless windows, usually in a cross wind of sorts..

Buzzsaw is exactly the noise BTW..

In my case it usually is my dog Alf letting one rip

No wind noise at all in the Audi (only air coming through the air vents)

think that will be down to the fact your audi is too slow to hit 120
