Transmission Whine?
The past 2 days is 100 degree weather after about 10 mins of driving my transmission (i think) whines in first gear, second gear, third gear, and nuetral. Can't hear a thing even at high rpms in fourth.
I thought it was the power steering pump because it would whine even in nuetral. Power steering fluid is full.
My transmission mount is bad... hydraulics are pretty weak, but it has never whined this bad before. It is about a quart low on fluid though, can this have an effect? Can I add fluid through the shifter?
Thanks

Mine does the same thing. Wines with the clutch out in neutral and going into every gear but 4th. It's the Input shaft bearing. Usually from oil starvation. Like it ran low and you hauled ***, so the oil in there sloshed to the rear and that bearing is hurtin.
Like they said above, check the fluid. Go from there. It's a $14 bearing but like $400 job to replace it..

I seem to be having the same problem, and was wondering if any of you guys who had this issues have resolved it. Did you take it to a shop or do it yourself. I talked to a guy at a speed shop by me and he said he would have to take the whole transmission apart to replace the input shaft bearing, but it was mentioned that you only need to take the front cover off of the transmission. I'm hoping i wont need to take the whole thing apart, but I wanna have a good idea of what I need to do before I get too deep into this. Will I be doing damage if I still drive my car or do I need to fix it first before driving it.
