Question Wind noise/vibration

I am hoping some one else has solved this problem and can offer assistance. My RV-7A slider has developed a noise that seems to be associated with the right slider side skins. This noise appeared without warning after 2 1/2 years in the air. If I push lightly on skin the noise will abate but it will come back at lower airspeed. It can be so loud that even with Zulu's it's very obnoxious. I have tried
filling the gaps forward of the slider where it meets the canopy fairing with silicon and that seems to have helped some but the noise reappeared today as I slowed to 80 mph.
Any help will be appreciated
