Whining from somewhere

(1/2) > >>

cardiff_gareth:
Not sure if its me being over causious but does anyone else's Disco whine a bit. It sounds like the whine is coming from the gearbox / transfer box area and its not to bad when driving, infact sometimes you can't hear it, but when you take your foot off the accelarator and free wheel if that makes sense, the whining noise is louder until you put foot back on gas and its quieter. If you push the clutch in whilst driving the whining is still there so does this rule out gearbox :?:

Do you think its the tyres with road roar just coming up through the floor :?: They are Colway A/T's

Range Rover Blues:
Just a bit of backlash in the T-box or gearbox backend, nowt to worry about until you can't hear the radio anymore.

Panic over then  8)

Will it be safe to driver to Hereford as I'm supposed to be going there 2moro :?:

What is backlash then and how's it fixed :?:

Terranosaurus:
Have you checked the passenger seat? Over the years I've found more whinning comes from there than any other part of the car.

Range Rover Blues:
Without going into lots of detail, backlash is something you adjust during the build-up.  Do you have a fair amount of slack in the transmission when you go from drive to overun?
