    I’m driving a KW 660
    When I’m going down the road I get an high pitch whistle from both down windows. What’s causing it and how can I fix it?
    Thanks for the help.

    Door or window gaskets/seals. Number one cause for whistling noises. Just for giggles, did you try turning off the radio to see if it wasnt feed back?

    I lost a screw out of the mirror on my T6, and it caused a whistle, put my finger over the hole as I was driving and it went away.

    It's the mirrors. Run a bead of clear silicone around the outside edge and it should go away. I sold KW's before the market went bad and I had this issue with every one I sold.
