275 Gearbox/LSD Whine

  1. Hi,

    Car has developed a whine above 60 mph which I believe is coming from gearbox/LSD.
    All gears select fine at the moment and apart from the whine no other noticeable issues.
    It is a 275 Cup - S on 26,700 miles which I have owned for 7.5 years, not been hammered or tracked so pretty disappointing.
    Does anyone know of any reputable garages who could investigate/rebuild the box etc in the North Yorkshire/Teesside areas ?
    I am aware of AW Motorworks but obviously it is a long way from where I live.
    Any suggestions welcome :smile:

    Thanks ,

    Andy.
     
  2. Common issue unfortunately. My Cup-S with 65k miles needs a new or refurbished box for the second time! I'm going for a refurbished box with uprated bearings.
     
  3. I'm currently ignoring the slight whine my Cup-s makes in second gear on the basis it not causing any issues. My current solution is to turn the stereo up a bit or boot it so the Akrapovic masks it! :grinning:

  4. Yep, looking like the stereo is a good option :smile:
    Where are you getting box with uprated bearings from Paddy ?
