Drivetrain moaning while cold
Is it normal to hear a slight low end moan / wining sound while decelerating when the drivetrain is cold? Since the cold hit, I've been noticing this sound especially while deceleration from 40-30mph. Once the trans temp gauge reaches around 150-160° the sound nearly disappears. The sound seems to change tune with the speed and not RPM. I only started noticing it since it started getting cold out.
It may be better described as a lower wine / hum sound that changes tune with the deceleration speed.
I wanted to check in because it's definitely apparent and although I've never owned a truck before other SUVs I've owned never made this kind of sound. Since the transmission temp takes so long to warm up I hear it for the first 20-30 minutes of my commute each morning. I started noticing it when the temp dropped below 45 or so outside.
