Love the 01 Nemo, except for a SOMETIMES right-front (A-pillar area)sound like an open window or heater door. This happens as low as 35 mph and IS NOT directly related to wind noise, but more like hearing tire/road noise. --Strange thing is that once the car warms up, it SOME DAYS goes away and the car becomes quiet even at high speed. It is not coming from the sunroof, nor the top of the windshield, but sounds like you might find the leak behind the glove compartment.It does not sound like a small air leak; rather it's like an almost wide open window. ANY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS PROBLEM???? AARRRGGGHHH! (Meanwhile, the ole 000032 tip recode was easy and works great! --next stop= GIAC so I can actually shift from one gear to the next in the same day)

It seems to be coming from the glove-box area, and is definitely not a blower noise. It is definitely outside road noise, and yes it is only when moving. The engine is quiet so it is not an opening near the engine.

Got it!! Seal not tight at front of the door. Hmmm..no accident repairs, but something not quite aligned. I got it with a bit of foam tape; perhaps a new door seal later. Thanks for the suggestions.
