My '96 900SE has just started doing this recently. I remember from earlier postings that it is a well-known problem with the windshield seal that causes part of the seal to "whistle", depending on wind speed and direction. There is supposed to be a TSB out on it, and your Saab dealer should be familiar with the problem. colin hobbs wrote: > Susan L Weschler wrote: > > > I just subscribed to this newsgroup.
