I have a whistling noise when my RF is closed. It is not the windshield. I had the windshield replaced a year (rock hit my windshield) with Safelite. They have looked at my windshield 6 times - resealed the edges, etc. It seems like the loud whistling noise is coming from the roof when it's closed....but I don't know what to look for. The Mazda dealer said it was fine.

    I know someone who has had an RF.

    @breld, can you help?

    Can't say I noticed that issue with my 2017 RF. But I did find this service bulletin concerning that same symptom.

    Sounds like you should take it to your Mazda dealership and have them take a look.
