Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

'99 C4, 91K miles, experiencing gear whine. I took it to my local indy and we went for a drive. "Gear whine" the guy says, "could be the pinion bearing". Of course the only way to find out for sure is to tear into the transmission. I knew this would be the only logical response but I was so hoping for a more difinative answer. His suggestion is when the time comes buy a used or remanufactured transmission because of the unknown issues he could find once he opens the case. The pinion bearing alone is around $550 and rings and other bits could add up quickly. He also suggested I could try Lucas Transmission Oil, which I did. The whine was much quieter right away, time will tell if it stays that way. Anyway, I was reminded that I hate hearing what I already know. Dang

POST 2Original post

i would just wait til the transmission goes and just buy a rebuilt one... it will be cheaper in the long run..

POST 4Original post

Wait and see, especially since the gear whine has lessoned for now.

POST 5Original post

change lube to something better and keep saving your penny's for the day when you need it done BTW "I hate finding out what I already know" I figured it didnt fit

POST 6Original post

Lucas is a band aid but it should buy you some time. I did something similar with Penzoil Synchromesh on one of my previous cars and the darn thing lasted me almost two years. YMMV
