NEED HELP PLEASE: has anyone heard of a "whistling noise" after you release your foot from the gas pedal and the same noise stops when your foot steps on the brake while travelling at 30-60mi/hr ? the noise starts on deceleration and it disappears on acceleration or when you steps on the brake. I noticed the sound only at 30-60m/hr(nice road, no bumps). THANKS.
The only whistle I've heard is from my passenger side mirror in extreme winds. I was traveling about 80 mph down the interstate against a 30+ mph head wind and boy did that mirror whistle. It was locked in place too. I could change the frequency of the whistle by adjusting the mirror to different angles.
My Pilot has sort of a "kissing" noise. It only occurs when we are driving at highway speeds and a strong cross-wind is present. The sound comes (apparently) from the down-wind front door window seal or perhaps the mirror. This is not a whistle, but someone else may describe it differently.
my mirrors are locked in place. it's weird because the noise is only noticeable on deceleration at 30-40mi/hr, its stops on stepping on the brakes or on acceleration. it seems the noise is coming from the front (hood, wheels, engine, etc).
I too have heard this excruitatingly annoying sound. Although it is *very* intermittent, I was able to record it 4 times in one night. If anyone wants the (4) .mp3 files, I'd like to share them to see if what I have is what you have.
Various Honda dealers are blowing me off. I have a ticket open now with Honda.

mine is not intermittent but i usually noticed it after driving for a while like after an a hour(not after just getting out from my driveway). FYI:i usually consult this site before attempting to bring my dear pilot to any service center. i learned lesson with my previous pilot. please send me your file (dokpilot@yahoo.com). thanks.
I had a whistling noise on my Pilot. It usually could be heard only above 30-40mph and was worse if it was windy outside. I determined that it was a leak into the cabin by pressing the recirculation button on the climate control system which made the pitch of the whistle noise change.
The dealer I bought the car confirmed the whistle, but could not find the source. Last week I took my Pilot in for the 15k service at a different dealership. I added the whistle and a rattle to their To Do list.
They found it! The whistle was apparently a windshield leak at the cowling. The technician stated that he "resealed the windshield at the cowling. I am really stoked that they found it!
Hey Dockpilot,
Had the same problem....first they resealed my windshield but the whistle reappeared shortly after...
so after taking it back a second time they realized they actually had a service bulleten on it..
its the actual cowl thats making the noise...tell them/dealer to check that out
