It changes with wind changes, and I was leaning towards a windshield leak.

The rubber trim around my windshield is also holding water. When it rains I can lift the lower corner and nearly a quart of water will run out.
I would think with the water under the trim it almost has to be the windshield. On ours, while I’m driving, I have my wife push on the corner of the passenger side of the windshield and the noise goes away. When she lets off, it returns. That’s how I figured out it was the windshield. The grill sound is much more high pitched and ear-piercing. Had both the grill and the windshield screaming on our way home last week!

we are seeing the same wall separation issues on our 2018 Thor Palazzo 36.1 one wall panel by the bed was never stapled at all. Bathroom wall at bedroom bathroom corner with trim is coming apart - so liquid nails will be the answers. the corner wall will be fixed with a piece of molding stained and polyurethane to match the woodwork of the coach. still have AC issues - not shutting off, sewer flush never being connected and not working. GFI tripping when 50 amp power is removed and inverter starts up. Like others, paid way too much to heave these types of issues - didn't have them in my Keystone Cougar 5er!!!

OP may have all the fixes done at this point.... However we had the same issue with the wall board. I just glued it and re-stapled it. No more problems. I would like to know the result of the Onan too. Just wondering really. As for the whistle, Thor came out with a replacement front grill. It, for what ever reason whistled.

It’s a damn shame to pay this much money for this mess.
Good luck with not buying another Thor product.
They own most of the motorhome / camper comp's out there.

There are plenty of other dealers out there. I am on my second coach. I had my first coach seven months and it was in the shop five months. No one would believe the issues I had!!!!!

Sorry for your troubles. sucks. Our first RV is our current and after much delay, research, and time deciding upon a motor home, trailer, or fifth wheel we decided on a motor home on a Mercedes chassis. Although what you're experiencing is a Thor issue on the box I see hundreds of comments about chassis issues. That scared me more than anything. I couldn't get passed camper people building chassis/frame by assembling components.

Luckily we've been very pleased with our 2017 Citation Sprinter 24SR.

Good luck in 2019.
