ok, so i got this noise in the tranny.
having had a oil-leak, i tought i was simply running low on oil.
fixed the leak and filled up with fresh oil (swepco), noise is still there.

when slowing down and downshifting, i have a "whiny" noise very similar to the noise you get when driving in reverse and letting of the gas.
it's there in 2nd but even louder in 1st ...

shifting itself is fine, no crunching or anything.

any ideas?

ok, now that i had some time to think about it, i have 2 more stupid questions: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

1) if it's a bearing, why does it only make noise in the lower gears?
shouldn't it whine regardless of the gear selected?
i've tested higher gears, and there's no noise to speak of.

2) it just sounds like driving in reverse.
so, why IS reverse making that noise in first place?
and why doesn't it hurt the tranny?
