I have a 2000 3.8L Coupe that the tranny "whines" in 1st and 2nd gear only at a steady rpm of 2500 and above. It doesn't "whine" until I hit that rpm. The other 2000 3.8L I have doesn't do it.

The car has 72k on the odo if that helps.

Normal or do I need to take it apart?

Thanks in advance!

manual or auto? I have a manual and I have a similar problem. It whines a little bit, not too loud though. I just put royal purple synchromax in it, quieted it down a bit. Any good syn should work.

Sorry about that, it's a manual.

I am going to jack it up and check the level later on today.

Thanks!
