I remember the RS6's at the RS Drivers' Challenge last year had a funny whistling sound. Do you have roof bars?

I got this on my S6 when it developed a fault in the sensor which stops the window closing if there is an obstruction in it. It was intermittent and sometimes the window was very slow to wind up and there was wind noise at speed as the window wasn't seated properly. Sometimes the window wouldn't wind up at all unless you took it a couple of inches at a time. I believe this is a known gotcha on all of the 6 series.

Thanks for the help. I do not have roof bars but I do have an intermittent engine management light. Maybe this is connected to the windoe fault.
