Mine also has a whine under load. Took it to the dealers and it was test driven and put up on the hoist, noise was there but I have not had any updates or replies what it could be.Hi legends. Is anyone experiencing a noticible and annoying transfer case whine? Reminds me of my school bus. I understand it's not chain driven but have a feeling mine is a little louder than normal. Like it's intrusive.all temps ok and drives well. Love the car. Cheers View attachment 7842049
Mine is silent under load, but whining when coasting along. Only when transfer case oil is hot.I think it is pretty normal for the Grenadier.
You may well be correct. I only have the 70cruiser to compare too. But it was manual. Funny enough, I remember my school bus had a 1hdt Toyota work auto that had the same whine. The whine isnt that bad but can get louder on the highway at 100-120One man's whine is another man's reminder that this is an old school driveline with spinny bits. Not to dismiss anyone who is bothered by the sound, but I'm in the latter group. At least it's real, unlike my Tinnitus which sounds similar
Exactly like mine. A lot of my driving is highway so hard to keep under load lolMine is silent under load, but whining when coasting along. Only when transfer case oil is hot.
Solution: Keep it under load ;-)
Same with me. But it's very easy to keep it under load on German highwaysExactly like mine. A lot of my driving is highway so hard to keep under load lol
