njdrsubaru Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 i have been trying to diagnose this for awhile now, its not the so called AT pump, because it only happens when i let my foot off the gas, specially downhills... now i have a 77k trans in it and when the trans was done i also put an aftermarket axle on the passenger side... do you think its that axle? it was new not remanufactured... its more like a moan not a whine... sigh shes really getting old :lol::lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 She takes after her daddy. ( ducks and runs ) Has it gotten more noticeable since the torque bind issue??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howards11 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Alternator whine ? My Forester has a whiney/whistle sound that I've been told is the alternator. Just like your noise it goes away once I take my foot off the gas. ~Howard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a bearing of some sort? Possibly the axle stub? :-\ Ummm, maybe the torque converter? Not too sure on this one Twitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
