Default weird..

i get this odd sound when i roll down my windows.


it's like a static noise that comes through my speakers only whenver i roll the windows down though..

if it's just the drivers it still does it, but if i do both at the same time, it's louder..

anybody know what this is?

Do you have an amp installed in your car?

Has anything electronic been added to the car? Sounds like a ground issue somewhere. Need some more info on your car though

Has it recently been in an accident or had the doors taken off. You could have bare wires exposed in the door boot causing interference or noise if the wires are touching.

Do all speakers make the noise or just the one in your driver's door? (You can test with the balance ***** on the radio.)

Does the noise get worse when you put the passenger window down using the passenger side window switch? (When you do both at the same time from the driver's side, you have twice the power flowing through the driver's side door harness. If you do both at the same time from different switches and you still have the same magnification of the problem, it should rule out an issue in the driver's side door.)
