I have a whining noise in first gear. It's not affecting the performance, I'm just wondering what it is. Also I have a 2.4 liter engine because I wanted the better ful economy and I didn't want to HAVE to use premium fuel only. Are there any performance upgrades that can be recommended that will gain power and still be good on gas like a certain brand air filter or kit and exhaust? Anything like that. Tranny question is a must know but the others are just for curiosity for now.

You know, I had a whining noise in 2nd gear on my Solara. It never bothered me and was a noise that didn't sound harmful, in fact it almost sounded liek a F/I whine of some sort, people asked me if the car was supercharged when it was on the dyno before because of it. I think it could just be the way the gears engage in the transmission, or who knows, maybe it's got something with the engaging of the collar with the synchros on the gear itself or has to do with an idling synchro?, or I don't know what I'm talking about, but I like pancakes and having fun with tony danza on tuesday evenings... better go set my alarm clock! :drinking:
