my KR verada makes an annoying beep sound around 110+, i thought it was a speed sensor but then it should be more consistent at what speed it comes on that it actually is, so im not sure..Ive got a movie of it but itll probably get gutted for putting it up.
Any ideas? Thanks
edit: the beep is a constant BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP rathar than beep,beep,beep. if you catch my drift

have you tried speeding up til you hear it, then slow down again then back up and then down again...etc? could be a window seal?

Actually yeh in the video where i speed up, when i finally get off the throttle the whine/beep goes away. So you think air is just getting into somewhere?

Could be an air intake leak? I know of a commodore that had this.

Though if there were an air intake leak then why would it only be apparant at approx 110? Hmmm this is confusing..
Edit: window seal made alot of sense though.. its just going to be a pain in the *** to find :S

Auto or manual?
when in an auto, you dont normally hold a gear at certain revs, so if it only makes the noise above 3000rpm, then you will only hear it on the highway in top gear where you are sitting constantly at the same amount of rpm constantly. try holding it in 2nd or 3rd and see if you still get the noise at 3-4000 rpm

just quickly check your door seals (driver mainly) for any tears or rubber coming off, you might notice that the rubber MIGHT be gone between the drivers door and the passenger door, top half

My old TR had a terrible screeching wind noise when i was on the highway, usually overtaking or at higher speeds around 140-150. It sounded like it was coming from windscreen but i could never track down exactly where it was

Might be the wipers/side mirrors. Oh - hang on, I remember, they don't make any sound until 170/180.
