Overdrive noises?
I've used this forum considerably lately, and with much luck,
so I figured I'd try all you experts first on this as well: I'm detecting a sound I can only describe as a "warble" or some kind of drone, from the middle of the car, or the tranny. I think it only happens in overdrive, as it's not there at any speed in 3rd gear, and goes away when in Neutral. So around 50-55mph, when just cruising. Any ideas? I just had the AWD clutch plates fixed, and haven't had AWD for awhile...if that helps. TIA! Yes, I am due for new tires. And no, it's not a wheel bearing. :D (Rebuilt tranny with 43K) |
I'd be inclined to think the U-joints on the driveshaft are worn out.

Or maybe a slightly bent driveshaft? Are the u-joints special to this car in any way? Subaru tends to charge dearly. :D |
You got it!
The u-joints are built to be non-replacable. Subaru wants you to replace the entire driveshaft. I'm sure some people have found ways around this. We've done this on our Justy. |
