    Yup! I thought I was gonna miss the tilt upwards and slide back sunroof of my old 1998 Mazda MX-3 flying saucer, but nope! Till now, I've never owned a vehicle with air conditioning that actually worked at all...!!! So, I'm ever so pleased to drive home in the boiling sun, while enjoying the cool comfort of a reliable electric powered climate controlled interior aboard my "Spaceship" :)

    And the nicest bit of all, is that it doesn't carry a huge fuel penalty to run it!

    :D

    Air pressure differential resonance, and to defeat the resonance you need to open another window until it stops. I usually open the opposite and diagonally opposite.

    Under 50 mph it shouldn't.
