A rebuilt tranny after seal failure was installed in Feb. In 4th gear slight harmonic howl from gearbox. No oil leak. No grinding or crunching. Smooth otherwise. Would this sort of thing be considered normal. Pretty quiet in 5th gear. Any others notice this? '03 MC 36k 11'02 build.
Occasionally I hear a strange song from somewhere in the car at highway speed in 5th. At first I wasn't even sure it was coming from my MC or another car nearby, but I have heard the same sound since. I have no idea what it is, and I can't make the sound happen.
I saw another similar post on here a while back, but I can't seem to find it right now...
