Default 02-05 civics...whistles

i just bought a 05 civic lx and when i take it up to 70-75ish my car whistles. according to the civic brocher, the 02-05 civics are more aerodynamic than any of the past generation civics. ive owned a civic from every genration except prolly the 1st but i never had this problem. do u guys have the same problem? have u pinpointed where or what is causing it? i wonder if adding a lip would help reduce the problem?

it could be a window slightly down or a gap in door jam

would help if you could pinpoint where it is coming from

I have an 02 and it doesn't whistle.
Couple of questions
Where are you hearing it whistle
Is your window closed all the way

Try adjusting your hood. Sounds crazy I know, but mine whistled for a while, I adjusted the hood clearance and it stopped.

Also check the black plastic piece around the windshield wipers, see if it is cracked or pulled up.
