New JSW - Had an 06 with the DSG, and never heard a peep out of it.
This JSW, I can hear a hollow whine as the transmission spools up 1st through 4th between 1200 and 2k rpm, then when I get into 5th and 6th the 'whine' becomes somewhat erratic - seems to disappear when there is no load, either deceleration or acceleration produces the whine.
Kinda sounds muffled - imagine hearing a shop vac running through a brick wall by holding a plastic cup to the wall and putting your ear to it - I know, kinda odd, but that's the best thing I can think of to replicate it.
Any ideas? Really quite annoying. Of course, I'm also one of those guys that can tell when the bearings are just starting to go out on the neighbors pool pumps...
I also get a rather violent stutter at times when the motor and tranny are cold with a slight bit of accelerator - not sure if the two are related.
