Whistling door mirrors - CarNovice28
Besides replacing them, is there anything that I can use to stop door mirrors whistling i.e. filler or something similar?

Thanks.

Are you sure its the mirror.
Usually whistling type noises are because of a faulty door or window seal.

Teach it to whistle a tune. It won't seem so annoying.

;-)

failing that use black electrical insulating tape over the gaps until its cured or shove Blu Tak (other brands are available!) in the gaps if you don't care for appearances.

So it's only annoying on foreign roads and private property? ;>)

70mph is just a little more than I can manage on a suburban driveway.

I would have thought a heavily chipped Almera with nitrous oxide injection and - why not? - one of those efficient helical modern superchargers ought to be able to manage it all right NW.

Could there be a small stone under your accelerator pedal?

If I took a chip off the Almera and blasted it with nitrous oxide, that might just about achieve the right speed. But my driveway is only 5 feet longer than the car, so I don't think anything short of an explosion will get it to 70 from a standing start in that distance.

Booked in to Mr. T for free!

Said they can't promise anything but they have cured the situation with other cars in the past.

I had one after my Princess. SWMBO still had to climb into the boot to reach the nether regions and it drank petrol.
