90 accord auto, when i start the car it makes a whinning noise that goes away when I put it in gear. As your diving when you are driving slow (25mph) or slowing coming to a stop, the noise returns and is changing with speed. I'm sure is something simple, I just dont know what it is. The transmission fluid is clean and full.I havent had any problems with the cars' performance, doesnt slip or anything shifts and drives normally. Now that its cold I am back to driving the car everyday, instead of the bike, so I want to check this before it gets too bad. Its hard to explain as it doesnt do it all the time , just some of the time. Its getting louder as time goes on, at least it seems that way. (Probably more just my paraniod side thinkin "that cant be good")

if you rev it in park and the noise gets louder its not the trans, and if its doing it while its parked pop the hood and rev it and listen to where its coming from -
Based on your description, it's most likely coming from one of your pulleys, I had the exact same problem, just try lubricating the pulleys and the noise should disappear. Hope this helps...Comment

okay
did that... it seems to be coming from the transmission. I seem to remember reading an old post that mentioned something about a noise similiar to the one I'm hearing caused by a starter or alternator prob? I cant remember... tried searching but no luck yet, still looking. Thought I might get lucky and someone would know exactly what it was. But youre right if it was the trans, I would think it would slip or something...and wouldnt make the noise in park, and in drive.Comment
