Hey dude. I just had the same problem. I had my window busted out in Lexington, KY, and
had a new one put in. After it was installed, I noticed some major whistling after 50-60
mph, so I called the window guys back, and they came and readjusted the glass. It fixed it
deader than a doornail. Turns out, there are several adjustments that can be made inside
the door, that allow you to move it side-to-side and back-to-back. You probably just need
to get a professional glass installer to come look at it and readjust it.

Solution:
The adjustments are as follows-
Take the door panel off. At the top of the door there are two stoppers that can be
adjusted by turning a nut loose and sliding the stoppers up and down. Loosen the nuts and
the put the window up all the way. Then move it down so that there is about 2mm of
clearance between the hard plastic molding when the door is closed on the outside of the
car. When you have achived this then tighten the bolts back up while resting on the window
stoppers. This should solve the problem. Another thing to look for is if the stricker
plate on the door itself is aligned correctly. You can tell this by looking at the door
when it is fully closed. If the door edge does not sit flush with the body then adjust the
striker plate by turning the two large phillips head screws. Once they are loose oyu can
slide it around. Put it in twards the car some, tighten the screws and close the door.
Hope this helps. --
