raddys Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Hello everyone, last night I purchased my 1st supra na manual.. however I have just noticed when I let off at higher speeds in 1st gear it makes a whining noise, not all the time though?? Any one shed some light.. many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Can you tell where the noise is coming from, eg. engine bay, rear, gearbox, drivetrain, wheel etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 or girlfriend? As Nic mentioned, try and identify where the noise is coming from. Could be the diff, gearbox, even the wheel bearing (you may just not be hearing it when on throttle ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raddys Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'd say it's coming from the front, bit hard to tell though, it's fine when I drive normally, it only happens occasionally when I accelerate hard in 1st then let off quick (as I'm decelerating I can hear it) and as the engine speed slows so does the whine :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raddys Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 So I doubt its a wheel bearing, I'm thinking box related, but what it is I have no idea.. has anyone else experienced some whine when letting off harshly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wile e coyote Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Check bearings on front engine , alternator etc Can you make it happen whist sat still revving engine ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wile e coyote Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Also if only in gear when it happens dip the clutch see if it goes ,clutch release bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 My car also developed a whinning noise, it use to come and go anyone answer? I'm not bothered as the whole supra is being rebuilt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 What do you mean higher speeds in first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 A video would help. Other than that, as has been said I'd be wondering about clutch release bearing, possibly check the crank pulley, aux belt tensioner is another one known to need replacing as these cars get older.

Abz Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Just confirm this noise only ever happens in first gear and not in any other gear? Does the noise go away when you change to 2nd? Also is this the stock W58 or an R154? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Maybe you got duped and ended up with a Twin Turbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
