Default Am i hearing wind/air leaks ????

I have noticed only recentlly / a few times with the radio off when it's quiet / when cruising along it sounds like wind blowing in around up near the top of the windscreen around the centre , i was felling above the top of the window on the inside looking for maybe a gap or something - when i noticed the whole top inside where the front window meets the roof is like a 1cm gap the whole way across , like the roof has come out from behind the rubber of the fron window where they meet ..... the noise is only noticable too when driving certian directions - like maybe heading straight into the wind .

1... is this gap along the top of the roof/front window on the inside normal , or is it supposed to meet flush - seems like a hard solid edge unmovable - is why i ask ????????????????

2 ... does anyone else notice wind noise sometime from around the fron window up top somwhere ???????????

I can' find any leaks for the life of me , from the outside the window goo that holds the window in looks like it goes right around the window and seals , i don't get any water leaks at all , its got me stumped , is it maybe noise coming from the lower front window demist vent - even when all the temp controls are off ?????

any help plz ......... cos it drives me crazy when it happens..

oh i also noticed too with the airconditioner on when i turn a right corner i get a really cold blast then coming out of the corner back to straight the temp drops again a bit , you can even hear the aircon fan power a bit harder too for a split few seconds while turning a corner ???????? .....lol ... strange
