Default Whining Noise??

I have an 04 automatic Z. When I accelerate from zero or very low speeds I here a whining noise that gets louder until I let off the gas. It doesn't occur when I accelerate when I am already up to speed.

Any Ideas on what it is?

Girlfriend?

Check things like alternator, p/s pump, etc. Hopefully NOT tranny - but check all fluids to make sure they are at proper level. Make sure belts are in good shape too.

Good Luck.

it could be the alternator. If the whining gets higher in pitch when your acclelerate then it could be the bearings inside the alternator or bad rectifier assembly (diodes).
