I am trying to diagnose a noise on my SL1 which has roughly 100K miles. It has developed a gradual noise that over time got louder and louder, at first glance I thought that it was a wheel bearing noise. Took it to a mechanic and he told me that the trammy is making the noise once it shifts into 4th. Yes the noise is only happening at highway or freeway speeds 45+ when 4th shifts in. So the question, do these cars have some kind of a known problem with transmissions, or any king of transmission defects? I will have to take it for a second opinion to see what the deal is. Trammy shifts fine in each individual gear including the 4th, and my last UOA 30K or so was stellar. Could something have happened with the planetary gears? Or could it be a trammy bearing? I will have to pull out some oil for UOA and go from there. Never heard that noise before, so I am not trying to get a diagnosis here as it is impossible to describe any noises, have any of our Saturn drivers run into the same problem?
