97 Cutlass Whines as RPMS Rise

So lately the Cutlass has been whining... almost like a quiet supercharger. Unfortunately, that's not what the whine is.

I'm thinking I need to change the tranny fluid, but just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem? The whine starts as soon as you turn the car on... and then gets louder as the RPMs go up... and quieter as they come back down.

Whining

Hi, Have you checked the power steering fluid? If it is low that can cause a whine that increases with engine speed. Does the sound change at low speed when you turn the steering wheel?

I have the same whine you are talking about but it is not the power steering because if i turn the wheel the noise does not get worse, and that usally happens when its the power steering pump. My car never did the whine noise until I had the trans reman. and at first it whined a little and they told me it was in the breakin period, after a really hard rain i was driving down a road that had lots of water on it and now the whine is a lot louder. Not sure what it is, but I would take it to a trans place and see what it is.
