Trans whine? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

MisterSheep · 01-25-2016, 06:15 PM

This is my first cold season with my car since I bought it in August. I've noticed with this colder weather that the crickets are gone but I get this horrible, what seems to be, transmission whine. Is this from the trans being cold? I haven't heard this before but damn does it annoy the hell out of me. I also have the dreaded throwout bearing rattle every morning as well. Was thinking about bringing it down to the dealer to see if I could get it warrantied before it's up in 2k miles.

Hey, warranty is free. I'd rather have the dealership fix all of the issues before I loose it.

Oh. and don't you mean quit?

If the TOB is bad and rattles when it's cold, it may turn to whining when it gets warm. Then it will scream, just before it freezes up and chews through the fingers of the pressure plate.

So, I agree, it may be worth a trip to the dealer.

Thank you for a legitimate answer

I will probably call up the dealer today after work and see if I can bring it in this weekend.

I never had throwout bearing rattle when the car was cold.

And I drove it for an entire Alaskan winter, my coldest cold start was -45 F

Throwout bearing rattle is not normal

Okay thanks, I heard the rattle almost the day after I had changed the trans oil to Motul. People were telling me it's normal to hear it and it's being worn.. As I now have 34k miles and had the oil changed at 30k. So I guess I've been hearing the rattle for 4k miles, and now I've been hearing whinning from the trans.. In my head that doesn't sound good and that's why I have been considering the dealership trip.
