Had my sti in for it's first service last week and now loving being able to give it some now and then but what I have noticed is that when doing around 95mph there is a lot of whistle from around the drivers side wind screen / door window area, any ideas?
I have started using V-Power and I'm sure that I can tell the car pulls more smoothly with it.
Also might consider PPP for it and I know the pack costs £1700 but can you get dealers to get this price down, if so what should I be looking at paying, just a note my local dealer (newcastle) has closed down and my nearset dealer is in Hexham.

If it's the MY06 PPP I would doubt you would get any kind of deal. If you manage it, let me know where!

 

Whistle is frameless door seal. Can sometimes make very loud raspberry in crosswinds at speed. Has made me jump a couple of times.

"They all do that sir".

 

^^^^^

lol, wait till you hear it at something like 130 about 6" from your right ear and sounding like a 'buzzsaw', you'll wish you'd had an SL with leather seats..!

 

Door seals or the drivers side mirror, seems to do it in all scoobys, no matter what year!

poss speed detector hidden in wing mirror, the new money pit ?

:P

 

One friendly subaru service-man told me that the window can bend a bit because it is no frame and then it doesn't sit "perfectly".
So I always try to not to touch/push the window when opening/closing the door - and tbh, the situation didn't get worse

 

I heard this saw/fart/horn noise for the first time the other night. It was quite windy, made me jump! I've an MY04.

 

Me too. I thought that someone was beeping me, but then realized that it was impossible.

 

Mine gets alot of wind noise around the drivers door.

All I do is drop the window an inch or so and then put it back up.

Doesn't do it anymore.

I suppose that it shouldn't do it but hey it's easy for me to get rid of so I don't fuss about it.

 

whats leather seats got to do with the door seals

 

Re-read it and think what might happen if you suddenly got a shock
