Transmission Buzz

[kissmyrs]

Has anyone experienced a buzz from the trans at high gear and low mph? This transmission tries to get to 8th gear as quickly as possible. So usually going 35-45 in 7th and 8th under that specific load the trans seems to buzz and its radiates a bit into the cabin....no where else and shifts perfect otherwise

Damn, your 8th gear bearings are going bad. Time for a tear down.

That sucks. I don’t see a way this is cheap with the warranty gone.

Just a tune or more?

I can flash back to stock, but they can always tell if they dig. Lovely

Is the buzz loud? I noticed a small vibration at idle today like it's vibrates and stops per second. I'm unsure if this is normal

Exhaust vibrations do this sometimes

Nothing to worry about

Ive noticed its more pronounced when the engine is in sport mode. And It only happens at 1k rpm in 7th and 8th gear. Hmmm

Sounds like the engine is slightly lugging. 1k RPM in 8th gear is a bit on the slow side. I'd save using 7th and 8th for the highway.

I never understood this. People buy a sportscar, buy go fast parts, tune it to use those parts.... and then drive it like a Camry. If you're tuning a car, then drive it accordingly. You need to drive a car where it's happy. 1k RPM in 8th gear, is not it. If the car likes to cruise at 4k RPM, then do that.

I think so, Im starting to think its nothing to worry about. If I keep the trans in sport mode it never hits those gears in DD. thanks all who posted
