Thanks for the replies, guys. It sounds like it may not be the U-joints since I've tried to get noise out of it by listening while switching from forward to reverse and back with no sound. I guess that makes it more obscure. Which may be a good or bad thing.
I wonder if it's the tranny. I had the clutch replaced about ten thousand miles ago. The first thing that happened was that they had to change lubes because when cold it was very difficult to get it out of first gear. And now the sychro in most gears is "iffy". To be blunt, If I didn't know this dealership and have a very good relationship with them, I'd suspect they gave me a different transmission. But it makes the same subtle whine (from age) as it did before they fixed the clutch (throw out bearing failure is what necessitated it).
