Definitely a possibility, however I haven’t seen anyone else with the same wind deflectors say anything about a whistling noise. So I’m not sure
I have a small whistle type sound after the AMS wings with the windows up so it's probably caused from the new airflow.

Do you hear it when the windows are down? Mine is very audible when they’re down

Darn well that sucks. I have the Verus wind deflectors and actually didn’t notice the whistling sound until they were installed. Wind buffeting is gone and now I get to hear a whistle :dunno:
same here. I had never noticed the whistling until I installed the Verus deflectors i figured it was due to the new airflow path created. I just turn the music up :dunno:

I don’t hear whistle but I hear some sort of little air pops from the triangle door piece where it meets the A pillar on the passenger side

I’ve been searching the forums for anyone else who noticed this! I first noticed it when I was driving right beside a road barrier. It sounds like a whistling noise, but since then I’ve been paying more attention to the window where it meets the upper door seal - even when motorcycles squeeze past close to the driver side, Its like I can hear it more and checked if the window wasnt fully closed.

I’ve had a roadster with similar frameless windows, but I don’t recall this sort of cabin noise creeping in. I thought maybe my window alignment was off but it seems pretty tight against the seal. I have yet to try applying some rubber conditioner to the seals.
My 2023 sadly has the same exact experience, it was fine for a week then it rained? then all of a sudden I started noticing the whistle/air noise driver side window. I feel like it's just not closed or sealed properly. What did you end up doing? Probably just gonna take it to Toyota.

The dealer took me on a test drive with a 2.0 unit they had. Exact same whistling noise. So I figured it’s just inherent in the car and left it as is.

I had a nasty whistle on the drivers side window after installing carbon mirror caps. I initially thought it was due to removing "winged" mirror caps but it turned out i hadn't fully clipped in the mirror cap leaving a 1 - 2mm protrusion. It was extremely hard to notice but after a vigorous push (and a scary sound) I've not heard a whistle since. Maybe just give them a check?

Solve: Just add a catless downpipe with AWE track exhaust. You won’t hear anything else 😂
