Last month, we mentioned that we were annoyed by a sideview mirror that whistled more than Andy Griffith, particularly at speeds of 60 mph or so. We took the Nissan Altima to our local dealer, seeking some respite. The dealership technicians, trying to isolate the cause, applied masking tape to the door/fender seam as well as the gap between the mirror glass and its frame. They eventually determined that the sound originated from the spot where the mirror housing meets the door. A replacement mirror assembly was ordered.
