Question for those of you with a Tremec 3550 or TKO
Alright.. So I bought a used 3550, and it wouldn't downshift into third and it whined loud in all gears but 4th. I got it rebuild and the guy fixed the third gear problem, but said he x-rayed and looked over all gears and bearings.. and he said he couldn't find anything wrong that would make the tranny whine. It's LOUD... but he said it's not a big deal and the tranny now looks like new (parts wise). Anyone else have a whine in their 3550? I spent 950 for the tranny, bell, and B&M shifter... And then had to spend another 738.00 on a rebuild... Talk about getting it right up the rectum.
