Well, based on the rain impact, start by checking things that can get wet... driveshaft and carriers, axles, brakes, etc.I have a low whining/squealing noise while in gear decelerating that sounds like it's coming from the drive train. Cannot be heard in neutral or accelerating.
When I'm driving during rain the noise goes away so somehow water must be fixing it.
Well i think it goes without saying, OP should check all drivetrain fluids as the first step lol. Hopefully he already did that.I have a similar noise come from my car. I thought it was coming from the rear diff but now it ended up coming from within the transmission itself. Still diagnosing the issue so hopefully I figure it out soon.
Agreed. Fluid should be the first step (and cheapest).Well i think it goes without saying, OP should check all drivetrain fluids as the first step lol. Hopefully he already did that.
And don't forget they were recalled for the transfer case seal leaks. One of the things that keeps me up at night with pointless worry.Yes transfer case has its own fluid, and only a small quantity, so a leak can quickly be a big problem.
I have receipts from around 2002 when the PO of my car had the T-case lock up on the highway. It was pretty catastrophic, bent valves and everything because the timing belt jumped.And don't forget they were recalled for the transfer case seal leaks.

Crap, I'm sleeping under my car tonight.I have receipts from around 2002 when the PO of my car had the T-case lock up on the highway. It was pretty catastrophic, bent valves and everything because the timing belt jumped.
So yeah, check the fluid
Yeah, it's hard to comprehend that the lucky ones are the ones the blow the T/case to shrapnel and run over the parts, but that seems to be the case...I have receipts from around 2002 when the PO of my car had the T-case lock up on the highway.

Just goes to show that we're driving supercars which need more care than a Corolla. At least it's cheaper to maintain than an AMG or one of those F cars.Yeah, it's hard to comprehend that the lucky ones are the ones the blow the T/case to shrapnel and run over the parts, but that seems to be the case...
