ok guys check this out.........at idol the car sounds fine ,at low rpms the car sounds fine..... at 4k rpms i get a real high pitch whine under the hood so i pull back in my driveway and open the hood i dont hear it much so i rev the car a lil and i hear a terrible whine almost like a turbo spooling @ 10000 rpms . So what i do is get a broomstick (no broom) and start poking around listening to the motor at idol.... i find out the whine is comming from where the motor and tranny connect... so im thinking torqe converter???? maybe..... I end up hauling ass down to autozone (they closed in like 10 mins) buying tranny fluid and a new filter...i swap filters and fluid and now the noise is gone even at high rev.... but ive got a gut feeling this is only a temp. fix. my question is WTF could it be.......there is 87k on the trany. help me out guys.... BTW if anyones from the so-cal riverside/north county area hit me up.

I'll give it a shot this payday. Hopefully that will fix the prob. Now all I have to do is get that damn chk eng light off. A mitsu dealer is running a test for 80 bucks. I hope nothing is really bad
