yhchoi67 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Hi, My 2014 3.5 EDGE SEL with 50K mileage has recently started to give me some whinning noise, when it is driven back from the garage in the morning. That sound is not serious so far, and disappeared after miles of driving. I am thinking of application of lubricant into somewhere on axle. It would be great if you give me some advice. Thanks, Edited January 6, 2018 by yhchoi67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enigma-2 Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 Have you checked your tranny oil level? When was the last time you changed the transmission fluid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, What do you mean by "recently started" vs "when its is driven back from the garage in the morning" - if it appeared right after it was at the garage, you should take it straight back there. Also, what makes you think of "application of lubricant into somewhere on axle" - did you actually hear the noise coming from the axle? - Is it FWD or AWD, front or rear axle?

macbwt Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Is it an AWD? Check the PTU and RDU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhchoi67 Posted January 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Thanks all. My car is FWD, and its transmission fluid has not been changed yet. I have only checked its level which is ok. That whinning sound seems to be from rear axle. 1004ron, "recently started" means that that sound started to occur since November. I could hear that sound when I drove back my car slowly after starting it, in order to get that car out of my garage. After miles of driving that sound never occurred.

WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Wheel bearings? Check for play. Sometimes the fuel pump can whine, and may indeed take miles to stop doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
