I have put my head close to the tweeters and as far as I can tell it is not coming through the audio system so must be from the engine bay.

Anyone else have this very feint, engine rev related high pitched whine?
This sounds like the induction intake and the air being sucked into the engine via the 'one' bonnet louvre which isn't actually a dummy. It's perfectly normal.
