hi RR buds

After posting this plea for help on the anything goes page and getting the most amount of abuse I'll try this section and hope for a better result.

I have a L322 4.4 v8 on a 53 plate. When I get to 70mph I get a vibrating noise coming from what sounds like the bottom centre of my windscreen or under my dash around the centre speaker area. I can't pin point it. Has any one had an issue like this or have any idea as to what could be causing the issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

As @Wazzajnr there have been a few of us with TC and injector issues but they could never be described as a noise coming the windscreen or dash speaker area. Mine was like driving a vehicle with square wheels. Some describe it like driving over a cattle grid.
Also that was far from ' the most amount of abuse' , you received in Anything Goes. You actually got off quite lightly

It's a noise, as the vehicle drive is very smooth. It sounds like a something vibrating in the wind. It's not the windscreen wipers/arms as when driving with them working I still get the same annoying noise. Like if you held a piece of paper in the wind and you get that ripple noise.

I did gather I got away lightly. Expected more.

That makes things a bit clearer and might help people come up with more relevant ideas. My own thought is have you checked the seal around the windscreen. I recently had a 'wind' noise from mine , which manifested from approx 60mph. Stealers wanted silly money to fix it, a little silicone to seal approx 1cm of lift and all was sorted. Other thought is have you checked the little round poppie-in things on plastic area below windscreen .......... can't for the life of me remember what they or it is called. I'm having a 'grey' moment

Could be a loose screw, instead!

Could be, a tight screw gives a squeal not a vibration.
