Oh God, no. It's really pissing me off so much.
I've been back and forth with him - gear whine on overrun. He took the tranny off - I asked if there were chipped teeth. No.
I asked if there were metal flecks in the fluid. No.
I'm actually worrying that it is normal whine. It's a loud gearbox. It actually sounds like a dogbox.
If you listen to it here, you'll see what I mean.

I'm just trying to focus on the 240sx. It's been in the paint shop for the last three weeks - should be done soon. That's a positive.
