Just got back from my dealer. Luckily I got SA to drive with me and he heard it.
He said definitely new winshield needed.

Attached please my video and also sound.
However it is from Nokia Multimedia Player since I took it with my phone. I hope you guys will be able to play it.

I had my windshield replaced a month ago Rob, but haven't tried a high speed run yet on that one....
At what speed did it come up on yours? Strange, I thought once resealed, it was solved for good.
