Interesting thing happened today...and my testing has concluded there is a slight issue with the PAT and its aerodynamics.
To do: Drive, all windows up, anywhere from 30 Miles per hour and up. But do not go over 50 for this test, may get scary.
Next: Keeping your front windows up, slowly lower your driver side rear window about halfway. You should notice a 'slight sound'.
Then lower it 3/4 of the way down. This sould should become a vibrating 'boom' that will feel like a huge Bass system in your vehicle.
Then do the same to the passenger side rear window. The noise and 'boom' should be so loud you will not be able to hear anything else and you will feel like the PAT is about to explode.
Grabbing both window controls for the rears and using them together you can find the sweet spot that will scare teh bejesus out of you. I find mine is about 3/4 down for both rear windows.
Simply opening the front window, even a crack, will completely stabilize the PAT and the sound and 'boom' will go away.
I find that from 30 miles to 50 miles an hour I feel this. I have not ventured to a higher speed as at the high 40s it was so pronounced I thought I would cause ear damage or car damage.
And that is your aerodynamic test. Any scientists want to explain that oscilating 'boom boom boom' with the small sonic kaboom while driving that way?
