Default 70 MPH Buzz

Yeah, some people get a buzz outta driving their Range Rover. I hear a buzz when I drive mine; sounds like its coming outside from the middle to left side of the truck. It's not there until I hit about 70 mph. The wind affects it, A gust of wind changes the pitch of the buzz/vibration. To try to isolate it I'm placing tape around the lower windshield trim, even shot one or two small dabs of silicone in places there the black trim seems to be separated from the windshield. Sometimes the sound is so loud it sounds like it's emanating from the middle vents.

Has anyone else experienced this. If so, what was the problem/cure.

ps I'm glad this is just a minor nuisance, but its hard to appreciate my road trip tunes with this car humming along, it can't carry a tune.

if you believe its in the cabin then start taping up stuff till it goes away. just go out on the highway with a roll of tape and tape and drive till its gone.

thats what we do.

The buzz/humm is coming from outside the car. It sometimes almost sounds like its coming from the middle air vents. I working a roll of tape now. When I find that noise I'll tell everyone what was causing it.
Thanks.
