Hey, everyone. New here, but not new to forums or cars
My 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood was just totaled by flooding, so I took the insurance check and bought a 2009 CVPI with 99k miles. Test drove it around town and on the highway. Drove 57 miles home, no problems.
This morning, I head out to wash it and buy fresh oil ... and there is a distinct whining noise coming from the front end. Sounds like a tiny dirt bike and shifting between gears is sloppy. The noise increases with engine speed, but it only happens when in gear/driving or after driving and in park. In park or neutral, there is no noise.
I checked the trans fluid, it is in the zone and looks clean. My first guess is that it's the pump... thoughts?
Thanks |

It could be the steering pump, or the alternator. Try listening to those close up before heading into the trans. It could save you MONEY.
