Car has done this since new.

This video clip is taken in the garage, engine off. KOEO; fan speed 4/5/6 going up/down to accentuate the noise.

Only does it on outside air/vent. Recirculate causes the noise to cease (or close to it).

Cracking the window also allows the whistling to cease; as does turning the blower motor off completely.

Reminds me of an old vent-window GM truck; lol. But, it's pretty annoying.

The origin of the noise is on the drivers side, left-most vent discharge area. The glass seems to be sealing correctly, etc. I don't feel any wind leaks when in motion.

If there are cross winds/air gusts, they make the whistle change pitch/tone momentarily. Outside air influences it. It gets slightly louder when in motion.

Any tips or suggestions as to where to look/how to remedy this would be appreciated.

Video is taken sitting in the garage, engine not running.
