Whining noise

[crunkGP96]

Hey guys,

I have an 00 GTP with 80k on it. Recently I noticed something in the motor whines when idling. It's not incredibly loud but its gotten pretty annoying. I tried pinpointing the noise and it looks like its coming from somewhere below the supercharger. Any idea what it is? The car has a CAI and a 3.4 pulley so I dont know if that makes a difference. No I do not have headers, and the car has ran fine. I did replaced the rack and pinion at 77k. It does not make the whining noise if I turn the wheel like a bad pump or rack would do.

Sure it runs "fine", buts its not good for the car to run that pulley with ZERO flow mods.

Check your trans fluid level while hot. Might be your issue.

thanks, i bought the car like this. i tried getting the stock pulley back on but my mechanic said he didnt have the right tool for it

being your at 80,000 miles and just got the car. now would be a good time to drop the pan and change the filter in the trans. your due.

clogged filter can also cause the trans to whine. can also cause hard shifts.

Whining sources:
Low power steering fluid
stuck pulley
Bad snout bearing
Broads

Here is a video I just took. What do you all think? Seems even louder in the video!

take one belt off at a time to see if that goes away. you can narrow it down like that.

I appreciate it! Im going to check the trans fluid tomorrow as well as removing the belt from the supercharger. I hope its an easy and cheap fix. This sound is annoying.
