Default Weird noise

Every once in a while I hear like a weird howling sounds when I'm driving almost like when you blow across the top of a jug. It seems to be toward the front on the drivers side. Any ideas, sorry I know this is not a lot to work with.

I had that exact symptom when my DV was shot. Didnt you mention that when you took your car to the dealer and they put in a stock dv? If its still in there, i can almost guarantee thats the problem since youre chipped.
Actually the DV wasnt totally shot, it was still working, but when i took it out, and replaced it with the forge, I cracked it open and the diaphram was torn a little.

A broken dv will cause loss in power. Not sure about the light, but i would'n doubt it since it seem like if you fart next to the car a light will pop.

Stop holding your beer bottle out the window, or switch to cans.

HAHA everytime I turn around something else is failing. It's really getting annoying. I finally got my car to run WOT all day long without limp mode by changing the n75 but now I have this stupid EPC which is actually worse. I CANT WIN!!!
