I hear you Taz
. I'm hoping this becomes the new RHD footrest debate
But I'm sure everyone knows that already so debate away!
Winds.
You mean wind?
Try this. Mine whistles when driving high speed caused by the flap actuators not closing properly in the HVAC system (sticky actuators/flaps). I usually have the Auto climate control turned on (auto button). Try turning the fan speed to 1 and magically the whistling wind noise stops. I discovered that recently. This issue is intermittent as the HVAC system has a mind of its own.
Old Porsches suffer from what is known as the "magic blower syndrome".
I am using DecibelX (https://skypaw.com/decibelx.html)
I use the app "db Meter"
This is with the windows up and a raised air intake on the vehicle?
Haha, if we do 138kph over here in Victoria we would almost have our car crushed for “hooning“.
I must test out my Series 3
I was driving on the Highway within the speed limit.
Where I come from, we raise the windows if we plan to drive at that speed.
I get that. To clarify, because you obviously missed the joke. Victoria in Australia is a nanny state where the speed limit is generally 100kph (on some highways it is 110) if you go over, you get fined and depending by how much. lose your licence.
