wind noise

I noticed the other day wind noise coming from by the osf a pillar, anything above 60mph and you could hear it, this evening it was ok, anyone have the same? It's either the wiper arm or the mirror i think.

Sometimes I get it from the drivers side pillar at 80mph or above when it is a particularly windy day, almost like a rattle.

I think it might be something to do with the angle of the glass

At high speeds the tops of the windows get pushed in therefore breaking the seal.

Maybe one of the windows is not going up far enough into its housing?
