Default Whistling (humming) noise question

Hi guys,

I have 2008 JK unlimited and I知 not sure why but it's making a whistling noise when I知 driving..... especially when I知 on my second gear!
Can it possibly be my throttle body sensor?
I'm positive that it's not a leak from my top!

Any suggestions or feed back will be appreciated!!

Thanks

Greg

Hmm, I have a slight whistle that comes from my left mirror. Something you can try is roll down your window and redirect the airflow around the mirror with your hand. That way you can at least rule out a mirror whistle.

Do you have a CAI system on your JK? I know some of the CAI give you a turbo whistle sound when you stomp on the gas.

I have this as well, only hear it when the driver window is down. Hasn't really bothered me enough to try and fix it. At least not yet.
