Could be alternator belt slipping a bit. If its in tune with the revs you put on, then its prob this.

no nothing to do with that its whistling air, at least i think it is, and when i open the window gets worse, sound like maybe something jammed in front windscreen vent and the airs whistling when going throgh there, its not on the outside of the car
