I am afraid to put a deposit on a 31S if it has the same problem. I called Thor tech support and they said there was an issue caused by the configuration of the grille.

Kev, Thor told you right, the wind noise is a common problem with Hurricane and Windsport and is easily corrected. The majority of the noise is caused by the egg crate plastic grill, worse on some coaches. Mine was corrected by adjusting the hood, which was before I knew about the grill problem. Thor will send a piece of black expanded metal for a grill insert to silence the whistle.

Don't let the noise keep you from buying the 31S, really not a problem.
