Funny noise from 110mph on MY06WRX
My MY06 WRX is producing a noise very similar to someone running their finger aroung the edge of a wine glass (akin to a high pitched resonance) at speeds of 110+. I think it's coming from the drivers side window (perhaps the seal isn't a tight enough fit).
Has anyone else had any experience of this problem and how to rectify it?

Ensure its not comming from the passenger seat.
I've also found that sometimes when I hear this high pitched whine I sewar I see a flash of blue lights from behind me

I got a high pitched whine from my 03 WRX when I hit 135mph. I assumed it was something to do with the drivetrain (ie resonance of some form) so never bothered to try and repeat it.

Same noise here from 02 Bug WRX, its to do with the frameless windows, as mentioned, if you are going to sustain that speed, just undo the window a fraction, then do it back up
