I am trying to find someone with a problem similar to the problem that I am having with my CE. My transmission has a noticeable noise at low speed best described as a "whine". With the transfer case in neutral, the noise can be heard at idle with the transmission in neutral, drive, third and second. There is no noise in park, reverse or first. The transfer case is a brand new 4494 from GM and the tranny has been rebuilt with all the "good stufff" at a cost of almost $4000. This annoying noise was there before the new x'fer case and tranny rebuild. My alpha has absolutely no transmission noise when doing the same "neutral" exercise. I would really appreciate any input before I take my CE back to the transmission rebuilder.
Thanks in advance.

So what your saying is you have CE and another H3 that is an alpha? You lucky dog.

Take it back to whoever installed all the "good stuff."

Have one of them drive it around the block and see what they say.

Took it in, had it checked out and my rebuilder says there is no problem and this noise is normal far a small percentage of these transmissions. This fellow has a tremendous reputation as an expert and has even had transmissions with "mystery" problems sent to him from FORD to be diagnosed. He also committed to stand behind my transmission beyond his normal warranty.
Yes, Ghostbuster, I have a 2008 H3X ALPHA that I pretty much keep in the garage and try to avoid rainy days. My CE is not babied at all and spends a lot of time off road in the Colorado rocky mountains.
