I’ve always noticed the whine at speeds up to about 45mph. Lately I’m hearing a distinct whirring at highway speeds above 65mph. Anyone else?

Maybe just a coincidence, but check out this post, which helped me with a flapping sound coming from the driver's side near the windshield:

RESOLVED - DIY Rattling noise from the left lower windshield at high speed
I have experienced rattling noise from the left lower section of the windshield area. I thought it might be from the windshield washer fluid line, but one of the members here told me it is from the headlight vent. The noise only exists above 75mph and is not that loud enough to go to SC IMO. I...

Thanks for the info. I remember your original post and am glad you figured out what the cause was. This is definitely a motor noise, and so I thought I’d put it out there to see if anyone else had the same experience.Maybe just a coincidence, but check out this post, which helped me with a flapping sound coming from the driver's side near the windshield:

I also noticed yesterday a slight motor noise when going 82mph. I was also going into the wind, which may have strained the motor more. When I approached a slower vehicle with HWA, the noise would go away as my vehicle would let off the accelerator. I only noticed this since I had the radio turned off, otherwise I would not have heard it. It sounded like the normal motor whine that I get around 35mph, but with an added droning sound superimposed or the whining being modulated up and down. I've never noticed it before and was a bit worried, especially with the flapping sound at the same time.
Did you all see the thread about loose motor mounts?
Thanks. I’ll check them out
