Hello all. So I posted a few months ago that I had a whine (metallic sounding) when I accelerated. The truck was new to me, so I chalked it up to not being used to the throatier v8 that the LR4 has compared to the disco 2 it replaced. Anyway the noise is really annoying so I posted a you tube video to make sure it’s “normal”. It happens when I accelerate (changing pitch depending on how hard I accelerate). Then, if I let off the gas, it stops until the tranny shifts to accommodate for the deceleration. Once that shift happens and I begin to slow down the noise comes back. I tried changing speeds and doing different things so you can understand how the sound changes. I hope it’s normal for the sake of not having a problem, but I also hope it isn’t because it drives me nutty. It’s faint in the video, so it’s better if your volume is turned up. Other than this noise and having to grease the steering u-joint the truck has been great the past 6,000 miles. Anywho, any help will be appreciate
