I'm a new owner too, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

I've heard you don't want to lug these engines and maybe a 6 speed is different than my 5 speed, but I don't think you want to be in 5th gear at 2000 rpms.

I get that whistling sound too, seems to be coming from the passenger side front fender at around 30 -35 mph. Might be there at faster speeds but by then, the wind noise would drown it out. I've heard its the vent for the fuel filler cap. Do a search and there's a bunch of suggestings on how to make it go away.

Blinker not making any sound (or very quiet sound) bugs me too.

Other ? I don't know except I heard it's hard to get at the bleeder valve on the clutch.
