Ok, for the past 2 days I have been hearing a whine sound from the engine
or transmission. Heres my observations.
* It sounds a lot like the whine the power windows make.
* It only occurs when in 1st or 2nd gear -and- truck is accelerating
* Does not occur when stationary.
* Does not accur when de-accelerating.
* Does not occur in park or neutral and reving the engine.
* Sound goes away slightly when the engine/trans is good and hot. Like
after 15 minutes of driving.
* Sound seems much louder when engine/trans is cool like early in morning.
Does this sound like bands, clutch packs or torque converter?
