Is it proportional to road speed and not gear you are in? On deceleration or acceleration, or both?  Road speed changes could be the pinion bearing, a common failure.

Subject: Trans whine

On my way to work this morning  my trans started to whine.  It is an 87 westy with a manual transmission.  I have not checked the fluid level yet but every thing is dry and it just suddenly started. Any thoughts? Thanks Dan
