Whining noise when pressing gas pedal
Ok lately I have been hearing this loud whining noise when I press my gas pedal a certain amount. It seems only when I press it half way. Any less or any more and the sound is gone. I'm thinking tranny maybe?
It's a 98 civic with GSR swap and GSR tranny.

Gears are whining? Maybe your bearings are getting worn and the gears are starting to mesh funny. Could be the differential.

Re: Whining noise when pressing gas pedal
is not the timing belt. it is the tension on the belt. if the tension to big it pulls the camshaft to much. have u recently replace timing belt or waterpump check it!!!!!

The whining I heard under hard acceleration was coming from the passenger seat. I fixed it by dropping my wife off at the house.

having a cold air intake or even the short ram you have will pull the air harder than the factory airbox or intake, causing a whistle sound when the air goes past the throttle plate when you press the pedal about 50% down... with the car running, listen for a whistle sound whenever you crack the throttle by hand... ust a theory but that could be what youre hearing

i have this very same sound on my car. stock d16y7 and i modded the stock intake a little and now i get that "whine" sound with my pedal halfway and usually around 2.5-3k rpms. nothing to worry about really and now i have grown to like it
