I just recently put another t5 in my car and after we installed it it makes whinning noise almost like a supercharger. Can anyone tell me what it might be. Thanks for the help.

Is it a new T5? Did you install an aftermarket shifter? When I had my T45 replaced under warranty I noticed the whine, but was told that this is normal and just needs to be broken in.
After 12,000 miles it got a little quieter, or maybe I just got used to it. ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

It's a used t5 with stock shifter. And now I kinda feel like my reverse keeps popping out. You guys think I need more gear fluid?

ATF... automatic transmission fluid, thats what you use in the t5's it's easiest to take the shifter off and fill it there. my t5 whines a lil too. good luck
