Yes the whining is subtle and low, no Banshee scream for sure. In my case I had detected this in 2011 after a timing belt and master brake cylinder job. In 2013 I took the carb out for overhauling and it all ended 2 years later as total engine rebuild, tranny refresh and initial body work (still doing body repairs). But car is running like a charm (in most part thanks to Fixkick), until I heard the whining again in 5th, which I had totally forgotten it did, way before the rebuild.
During the rebuild I said: why not disassemble the tranny for inspection and cleaning? Magnet was so covered in metal dust that actually it looked like a totally different part. Now is all cleaned up and fresh oil in. Writing this I did remember the whining upon inspection of the 5th but saw nothing peculiar or damaged about it. So, so far all good and smooth, except for the low whining.
Regards and thanks!!
