Low tinnitus: I'm sorry that you're having the difficulty with the noise in your ear which is called tinnitus. The most common cause of what you are describing is wax or cerumen against the tympanic membrane, which in a car with the changing air pressures might sound louder. See your physician or irrigate the ear with a syringe and warm water and if it continues then see the physician
