Sweet82 Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 I have an 01 Forester with a 5sp. When I'm crusing at freeway speeds I get a noticable whine comming from the tranny when I let off on the gas a bit. It seems to only occur when I'm not on the gas and starting to lug. It's a high pitched whine comming from the general drive train area. Anyone else had this?

Rich Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 I had an old 82 wagon that whined. It was the shift lever. I could place my hand on the handle and it would stop. If that isn;t your problem, check the front diff fluid and make sure it has plenty there. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet82 Posted September 8, 2003 Author Share Posted September 8, 2003 I does sound like one of those noises! I'll grab the knob next time I'm up to speed. Never have checked the tranny fluid. Ooops! Hopefully that will solve it. Thanks, Glenn 82 Hatch, transforming....:temper: 01 Forester, whinning.....:boohoo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 an improperly adjusted ring and pinion. Do you have a friend that has a similar car to try to see if your car is normal? I have a Forester and I am in San Mateo if you are around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
