My problem started with a slight plink noise when I would start from a stop, or up shift under hard acceleration. In the course of checking out the u-joints we found that the transmission fluid was black. This isn't gear oil, it's Syncromesh transmission fluid. According to the owner's manual it should be changed at 150,000 miles, mine was burnt at 70,000. We flushed and changed the fluid, it quieted down but didn't completely go away. Since then the tranny has started to make whining in 1st,2nd,and 3rd, with a load on or hard acceleration, or when downshifting.
