Extended warranty paid off.. They are replacing the xfercase and once done they ll look into the "whine" i got from the rear end. I got to replace that "plug" at the top of the diff thats causing the Abs/brake light to turn on everytime i take an exit ramp.
The whine would be a throwout bearing? --it whines down when i let off the gas but whines back up when on it.
If it does it when your stopped My guess would be the idler pully. Mine did the same thing and sounded like it was coming from the back but was actually the idler pulley and they are known to go out!
Not a throwout bearing.(thats for clutches) .. i was thinking the bearing in the rear diff.. if you accellerate its putting pressure on the bearing, hence making a whine..
It could be any thing..
Does any one have a list as to what is covered on drivetrain warranty by dodge?
I had a noise too. Adjusted the hood stops (them black plastic screws under the hood) after I noticed a slight shimmy as I was driving down the expressway.
