Whining in Reverse
I've just begun to notice that upon releasing the clutch in reverse, it makes a whining sound. This happens when I'm at the friction point. I'm thining the clutch may be bad, but my forward drive gears work fine. What do you think this sound is coming from?

Re: Whining in Reverse
all manual transmissions whine when they back up because of the way the gear is designed. if i remember correctly, the forward gears are helical in design and the reverse one uses a straight spur gear.
