Drivetrain "whine" 2006 manual

Recommended Posts

I have a 2006 manual and lately have been noticing what I think may be a whine from the drivetrain. It is most prominant betwen 65 and 75kph and occurs whether in gear or coasting. It appears to be coming from the front of the vehicle. It is also hard to select reverse and I need to place in 1st and move the car a fraction then reverse can be selected easily.

The RAV has done 28000km and the warranty expired in approx 5 weeks.

Can anyone share any thoughts on this... is this common with these models ?

Just recently became a member so I hope anyone with explanations or answers still checks this topic.

I have a 2009 RAV4 CV manual and it makes a 'whirring' or 'whining' sound at 70km/h in 4th and 5th gears. It may also do it in 3rd but I find the engine noise and sometimes road noise makes this harder to know for sure. The car has done 37,000 km but I've only noticed this sound recently. Sometimes it sounds like it's coming from the front right of the car but I don't trust my ears with all the other noises that go on while driving. I haven't tested the car while coasting (not in gear) but I'm keen to find out if the car will keep that speed long enough. Has anyone had a diagnosis from their car doing something similar?
