Condition
Some customers may comment on a whine noise coming from the rear of the transmission. This noise may be most likely to occur in the 24-56 km/h (15-35 mph) range.
Cause
This noise may be caused by contact between the transmission speed sensor and the speed sensor rotor.
Correction
To diagnose this condition, shim the speed sensor away from the extension housing and drive the vehicle. If the noise is no longer present, the speed sensor was contacting the rotor and the extension assembly should be replaced. If the noise is still present after shimming, refer to Symptoms -- Automatic Transmission in SI for further diagnostic information.
