Hey guys, what makes that whining sound when my Stang is in Reverse? I think it's the rear gears, but what exactly causes it? It makes me feel like I'm in a 4-banger.

 

hey watch it[>:]

 

If the whining is when you MOVE it in reverse, that's perfectly normal. Reverse is a tall gear, and it whines when MOVING in reverse.

 

I didn't Mean that in a bad way That's just what my friends Honda sounds like everytime he backs up. Sorry man.

 

Do you have any idea on how that happens? Or could you send me somewhere where I can read up on it? It is just something I would like to know "How it happens"

 

From what I have heard it is because reverse gears are straight cut gears not angled(sorry don't know the proper term) like the other gears

Here I found this that explains it all for you



I hope i linked this rite

 

Thanks. The title of that "How to" article is exactly what I was looking for. I'm going to go read it now. Thanks

 

Could be your wheel bearings. Check if they're lubricated.
