When I am down shifting, if I don't rev match (heel & toe) and just let the clutch out when I am slowing down, it sounds like either my trans or transfer case is whinning. That is the only time I hear it.

I have really never launched my car hard, or at all for that matter! I broke my VIII launching it so I decided not to with my IX.

I just changed all the drivetrain fluids a couple of months ago with Redline.

Any ideas?

 

Bump for me.

 

Sounds like the death whine strikes again....

I had exactly the same complaint and it steadily got worse. Never launched my car, never raced it even once and the T-Case went out from daily use. :[ Ring and pinion in that thing just suck.

98% chance its the T-case.

 

i never had a problem until 1 day i used redline and kaboooooooooooom

 

i wonder how many threads there are about... a whinning noise..

hmmm

 

thats your supercharger.



Just kidding. are you on the stock clutch?

 

Yes, still stock clutch.

When my ring and pinion went out on my VIII the symtoms were much different. Made noise on low speed turns only.

 

If its first gear then its normal if its in N then its your t case and if its in in like 2 3 4 while driving could also be the t case

 

Noticable most in 3rd.

 

Redline in the Tcae may be your issue. HIGHLY recommended to use stock fluids in the Tcase and rear diff.

 

I have heard that too but AMS recommends it.

 

I know AMS recommends RedLine in the trans, which is ok, but the Tcase and diff too?

 

 

I have got the same whine as well. Highly noticeable if neutral and 5th.

Where can i get a cheap tcase...? hahaha

 

No such thing...but John at TRE can help reduce the costs
