inquiry/diagnostic

I hear a slight whining or sounds like a bearing when accelerating or decelerating on 4th and 5th gears only. and starts at 2,000 rpm and up.

when on steady throttle (any gears) or from 1st to 3rd gears on any rpm theres no noticeable sound.

the whining sound or vibration increases as the rpm increases. its like its connected to the rpm. when clutch is pressed, no sound. coasting on neutral, no sound.

any ideas guys if this Is a big problem? or what should I be checking?

its a jimny jx 2009 manual tranny. at 80,000km

Ipa lift mo ung car mo para ma isolate mo ung road noise o bearing.

kung after lifting at iikot ung gulong hindi nyo ma replicate ang ingay, posible na ang problem mo ay sa gulong.

You need to drop the tranny, big job 1-3days. Normal wear and tear related to ageing, nothing lasts forever.

-update.

went to a talyer with lift. they found nothing. rotated and checked all linked to tranny or axle or drive shaft. no play or sound or leak. then went to test drive. was told that 2000rpm might be a low rpm thats why it was making a noise at that rpm. i should downshift. and 4th gear has more noticeable noise than 5th gear.

went home a little relived but still worried.

might check with another talyer.

You'd better off with casa checking if you're still worried. Atleast casa people knows the common problems of specific model. Checkup/ assessment is free.

My stock Jimny gives me 80kph at 2k RPM, no unusual noise whatsover. I'd be worried if it does since its just over a year old.
