Window Makes Obnoxious Noise at Speed

Whenever I exceed a "specified speed" my window makes an extremely obnoxious noise. I am assuming it has something to do with the air pressure causing it to vibrate, but the stealership told me the window is "functioning properly," even though it has a nice little wiggle when partially open.

It this something I can fix myself? A simply tightening perhaps? Anyone else experience this problem? It gets VERY annoying.

Thanks for your help!

Are we talking a "closed course" type speed? Normally when I'm really pushing it I have the windows up anyway, but sometimes on the highway when I have them down and I'm going 80 or so I can definitely see them moving, although they don't make any odd noises.

The windows are closed when this noise occurs. I'd like to leave the speed "undisclosed" given how Mitsu has been known to troll the boards.

Oh ok, well with the windows closed I did have one instance where there was a very high pitched noise at high speeds with the windows up, although I wasn't able to tell exactly what was causing it (i remember a member claiming that his mirrors were making noise at high speeds ). All other times that i remember though were pretty normal.
