Gear Whine letting-up on throttle
Posted: Mon Oct 02, 2006 12:27 pm
Hello,
I had this terrible saga of no-start electrical issues and I'm ashamed that it was a connection in the end. Oh the hours spent chasing that bastard....
Anyway, unknown history on transaxle, Verde, tall gears. New syncros and first tear-down and rebuild for me. When I let-up on the throttle (any speed, loudest at low speeds) there's a VERY noticeable gear whine. No vibrations, great shifting, etc. but this gear whine is yucky.
Anyone? The bearings could very well be bad for all I know. I replaced all seals and the two rear bearings on the stubby shafts - that's it.
Thanks a lot,
dp
p.s. A special thanks to Greg Gordon and his Dad for the help with my starter issues. Those guys are saints.
