Now that the lights, brakes and strut mounts our replaced, the V70 is driving very well again. Only thing I notice is a whistling sound coming from the engine compartment when at freeway speeds. It doesn't happen all the time and slowing down seems to stop it altogether.

I did replace the upper engine mount on the firewall and that seemed to reduce the noise some but it still happens. I replace the front lower mount about 10k miles ago because the belt was rubbing on the frame. This time however, I see no evidence of the belt rubbing against anything.

Anyone experienced this? The V70 is at the 140K mile mark.
