    Whine in High RPMS, any gear....intermittent as well.

    So I noticed even from first all the way to third in the higher range of rpms..I hear a faint whine/whistle sound...I wouldn't know if 4th or 5th does it because that's just stupid fast and I don't wanna beat on my car

    At first I thought it was the rush of air on my top, or a certain speed causing it, but its rpm dependent for sure.

    Any speed, this whistle will hit, as long as I hit the upper rpms. When I hear it, it sounds like its coming from under my left front, and not my gearbox, I say this because I would think if it was the trans, I would hear it from inside the car more so then from my window or with the top down...

    Bad bearings in my Alternator? Bent spindle?


    Shifts great, rides smooth, sometimes first is a little clunky but that would be a bushing problem right?

    Also when downshifting, when I put it in gear before letting the clutch out, sometimes I have to give it some extra elbow grease to get it into gear, I'm almost positive a bushing refresh would fix it but just curious on that....
