Could it be the power steering pump? They can whine very loud if low on power steering fluid. Richard T. Woolf Sign Painter DPW Fort Dix, N.J. -----Original Message----- From: mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Albanese Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 10:45 AM To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: IML: Transmission "whine" Indicative of most all Chryslers I have encountered, two unique conditions exist - 1) the distinct sound of the starter and or engine while turning over just before ignition, and 2) a constant "whine" while motoring down the highway which increases and changes intonation as the vehicle's speed changes. My question is this - the rotational "whine", perhaps from the tranny or drive shaft - Is that something that can be indicative of a componet about to fail? I had the tranny rebuilt upon purchasing vehicle, sodoubt if the noise is transmission failure about to happen. Any thoughts please.
