hi andrewrox22
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDp-fhl3dvw - exactly similar to this.
-it happens during acceleration.
-Its an auto transmission
-when I fang the car, the engine drowns the whine
- gear engages just fine. a lot of city driving recently.
- car has done 160k km
how do you know If your power steering has died? what symptoms can I expect from it?
If its the power steering, the whine will be noticeable during revving in park or neutral.
If it is the transmission, you should do oil and filter change and hope it improves.
I think there was a thread here sometime last year with this same issue, cant find it at the moment but i don't think it's the transmission...
nevertheless, you should still do some changes on it to see if it affects it at all... maybe make another thread and see if anyone knows
could be a blown alternator too
What's the explanation behind it, how come other cars don't do that?Quote:

It's a metal pin that locks transmission in place.
Fredoops is right.
The transmission (or pin in the transmission) doesn't like being stressed (ie, to move in one particular direction if the car has the tendency to move in another direction (in a slope)).
To reduce this (when changing direction on a slope) you could use the park brake or your foot brake (and accelerate a little) when you travel the opposite direction of where the car wants to roll.
If you park you car on a slope it is a good idea to let the park brake take the rolling tension instead of the transmission. So you stop, pull the park brake, let the foot brake go for a milli second (car will roll a little to the direction of the slope) and put in park on your transmission.

I'll live with the whiny noise for now. Thanks guys
You should also replace the transmission filter if the oil is dirty.
Replacing the filter might improve oil flow and this may help with the noise issue.
You'll need to remove the air filter box to gain access to the transmission in line filter.
It is recommended here to do drain and refill of the transmission fluid a couple of times if it is dirty (oxidised from heat) as one change only remove half of the oil.
Great thread, thank you so much.
My '06 Euro is in the process of having it's gearbox flushed - drained 3L on the weekend and filled, will do again when I receive my Magnefine filter.
Btw I used Liqui Moly Top Tex ATF 1200 (fully synthetic):
