Countryman Roof Rack Whistle Sound

Hi

After 60mph roof rack makes a whistle sound.

In front rack there must be three spoilers like something small parts.
I have only one, is it because of this?
How can I find something similar?

Post a picture please. I'm speaking of the rubber strips that fit in the grove across the top of the bar.

Take the top strips off and see if the whistle is still there.

Off topic, but where did you get your rack cross bars wrapped?

Couper1's location shows him to be in Turkey. I'm not sure that is going to be of much help to you....
