Whine in first gear on my '09 CTS automatic 3.6 base engine by temj12

Someone with an '09 please refer to my previous post and tell me if you are having a whine in first. Every other gear is quiet. I just have 600 miles on the car and I want to know if this is a characteristic of the 6 speed transmission or not. Thanks.

No wine for me either (2009, Black, Std engine). I do sometimes have a faint rattle in the passenger side seat belt assembly, but otherwise, all is quiet.

hi,
i have an 09 cts,bought it dec 29th.08 and it has about 1200 miles on it now.
i have no whine in first gear.it has the direct injection 3.6 engine.
there is a rear end problem in some of the 2009,s and i think the late 2008.
over 40 mph i was getting a pulsating feeling in my ears. i thought my dealer would think i was nuts when i told him about it.
his reply was,"we know all about it. there is a soundproofing kit that needs to be installed around the rear end." they also re aligned the rear axle and the sound is gone.
my only complaint is the climate control, and i am making an appointment with another dealer next week to try and resolve that problem.

Thanks for the response from you and the others. I needed to know if this was true through the line or if it were just mine. If this was just a characteristic of all of them, I was not going to pursue warranty. Now I will.

I live in New England, so have not had a chance to use the a/c yet. Haven't noticed the blower problem with the heating system though. Also have not noticed a transmission whine in first gear.

Posting in all caps is very hard to read. In fact, most people ignore messages in all caps, so I would be surprised if you get many answers.
 
My 2009 CTS climate control fan runs fast until the car approaches the set temp. Then the fan slows.

09 CTS - I finally found the fix for (my) creaky driver's seat. I used leather conditioner on the leather surface that mates with the vinyl trim around the perimeter of the seat & seat back - and WD-40 on the bottom vinyl seat trim "vertical seam" where the two front sections are joined together. No more creaking.
 
Good luck
