whistling noise- windshield or radio antenna??

[xlt-sport]

i have an occasional whistling noise in my '02 explorer.

it is very annoying!!

it only occurs when all the windows are up and the sunroof is closed.

[i have checked the interior vent on passenger side and it is open]

doesn't ford use anti-whistle radio antennas?

anyone had this problem?

anyone have any thoughts, ideas?

thanks

In older explorers, a whistling noise could be from the IAC valve, or from the tranny. Or you sure it's just air seeping in somewhere?

it is definetly coming from the top of windshield area or sunroof, maybe passenger door seals.

am i the only poor ******* with this problem?

I test-drove a '97 once that whistled pretty bad from the factory roof-carrier. Maybe that's it.

My '98's radio antenna does have an anti-whistle sleeve (smooth and fat) over the bottom of it. The '97 I test drove didn't have one. Does your '02?
