Trying to figure what a whistling sound is coming from when I am driving. Doesn't happen when I am not moving

Make sure the vent doors are properly closed. Check the weatherstripping around doors and windows.

A EZ WAY TO ELIMINATE SOME POSSIBILITIES (LIKE WEATHER STRIPPING, MENTIONED ABOVE) YOU CAN USE THAT "BLUE" PAINTERS TAPE OVER THE SEAMS OF YOUR DOORS (EZ TO REMOVE AND NO RESIDUE). AS A TEMPORARY TEST (DO PASS DOOR, TRY IT, DO DRIVER'S DOOR AND SLIDE ACROSS TO DRIVE)

DO ONLY ONE TEST AT A TIME

OTHER PLACES TO TAPE MIGHT BE THE MIRRORS, PLASTIC TRIM, WINDOWS IN THE REAR, ETC

1 HAVE REPAIRED/ ELIMINATED THE "HELICOPTER ROTOR SOUNDS" ON CHEROKEES BY SIMPLY TIGHTENING THE LOOSE "HOLD DOWNS" ON THE OVERHEAD RACK

KEEP US INFORMED, YOUR FINDINGS MAY HELP THE NEXT FELLER!
