I seem to get a lot of wind noise at speed (over 65/70) my98uk scooby 4 door.

It seems to be coming from the A-pillars, but I could be wrong (hard to pin down at 70 ).

Anyone else have a similar problem, or is it another scooby thing to 'live with' (like the window wind noise)?

What tyres do you have? Mine got a lot quieter when I changed from Pirelli PZeroes to Goodyear Eagle F1s.

Tried turning up the sound (waiting to get a CD, so a little distortion )

Running Pirelli's at present, may look into changing them, but money is a little tight.

Thanks for the input.

it could be coming from around the wing mirror area which when u can hear it try moving the rubber seal to see if the noise changes. if it does then take it to your local dealer and get them to adjust it
