A little play in the CV shaft is normal. As for the whine, I'll defer to trannyman and his input as he is far better qualified to answer that than I am.

The whine noise can stem to numorous areas of the transmission and there are a few very common ones. I need to know when exactly this noise is present.... Does it make noise sitting still in Park? Neutral? In gear NOT moving? Stalling up the engine in gear not moving? Only when moving? Only in certain gears or speed? The more info I have the easier it is to pinpoint your concern. I have often heard an idler pulley bearing make a noise that distinctly says trans, but is not and using a stethoscope to rule that out helps so you can listen to all of the accessories on the front of the engine or even put it on the trans itself if it does make noise with the car sitting still. An easy test is simply to remove the engine belt/belts if supercharged and see if the noise is still present. If you can answer the above questions as to when this noise occurs I can help out further

Thanks for the response guys. The noise is not present when it is in Park or Neutral, but is constantly present throughout speeds from 5-75 MPH, I am sure that it is present at higher speeds but that is above our speed limit here. I just replaced all of the idler pulleys last summer, but I will remove the belts today and try that just to rule those out. What are the common areas of the tranmission that cause noise?
