Whining by fuze59

Hi guys,
Ive noticed a lot of you talking about having to change your transmission.. what symptoms did you notice that were tell tail signs your tranny was going??
 
At the moment when I accelerate I hear a whining noise. The same noise as when you reverse fast or up a hill. The faster I go the higher pitch the whine. Do you think this is wheel bearings or tranny??
 
Just got my 2001 neon last week with 147k on it.. fingers crossed its not a bad car :S Already having to put half a liter of oil in everytime i fuel up.. engine light is now on.. when starts cold makes some funky noises and does this wierd rev on rev off things.. but anyways.. any help or advice with the whining would be great.
 
Cheers, Reece.

I hate it when I'm always right, but I think the Neon is the single biggest reason Chrysler went bankrupt.

I had the same problem for a while.. then the car would run fine for about 10 minutes then the whole transmissions would just go out, as if the car was in neutral in every gear. I pulled the tranny out and opened it up. The clutches looked good, the pump looked ok, so the only thing I could think it could be was the torque converter. So I bought a new one for $89. I'm about to put it on and see if that was the problem. I'll let you know then you will know what needs to be fixed on your car. Unless you've already had it fixed. If so let me know what it was. Thanks.

Thanks keep me posted.
 
Another problem which recently started is the internal electrics. Every once in a while (happening a lot more frequently now) all the dash lights will illuminate and/or all shut off. The speedometer and fuel gauges also just stop and drop back to the off position. I notice this happens to when i toggle the indicator or toggle between normal and hi setting headlights when driving at nights. Time to move this car on
