My shep trans/tcase whines. Does it whine at low rolls or does it get louder as you drive? if it goes away you have nothing to worry about.

you have nothing to worry about then. Your cars gonna make weird noises when it gets cold, dont worry! as long as it goes away after you're cruising past like 30mph you're good to go!

glad to hear it. yes.. it will whine. sometimes they take alittle abuse and then they whine. my car didnt start whining until after i launched it. but as long as the whine is gone after 1st gear etc.. you're good to go.
