0002993 Dealer Repair Information
Some customers may hear a high frequency whine that occurs at
approximately 45 and 75 mph, this noise usually can only be heard
with the radio and blower motor off and when the customer feathers
the throttle within a very narrow RPM and MPH range.
This whine is considered normal and no repairs should be attempted.
This whine is not the result of any abnormal wear occurring within
the transmission but is a result of a resonance that is generated
at varying levels between the primary and secondary gears and does
not affect the use, safety or value of the vehicle.
