Transmission Whistle ?
#1
Is the noise at 2,700 rpm? Mine too! Different tranny though so I'm not sure if it is the same or not. Just started noticing mine a few thousand miles ago.

Transmission Whistle ?
I have a whistling sound coming from my auto-transmission when at about have trottle shifting from 2nd-3rd gear. It goes away after the gear change, But when the tranmission downshifts at a specific trottle/gear if whistles again. It's an on & off type whistle, almost like something is slipping but I can't feel anything slipping. I took it to the dealer and they heard the noise but could not identify the source. I have 33k miles on the truck and warranty runs out in 3k. Any suggestions ?

I had a whistle from the transmission in my 97 Explorer. When I was stopped and in gear it would whistle, but I soon as I hit the gas it would go away. Dealer said it was some sort of loose plate in the tranny and they fixed it for $240. I found a TSB on it at "alldata.com". They list all the TSB's for any car or truck for about the last 20 years. Hope this helps.
