If I open the front window and back window in my car then drive at a specific speed I get a very weird woop-woop-woop and it feels like the air is pushing me back and forth in my seat. It pulses my head.

Wonder if it is something similar.



My car does this too. No previous car I've owned has had the same issue. Hopefully it isn't inherent to modern automobile aerodynamics because I'd like my next car to be one without it.


When you put one window down, crack the other window a little bit.

Yeah, that's the same pressure differential, building and equalizing repeatedly. Same effect, and as most people agree, it's very unpleasant.
