Confirm the gear oil is full first. If it hasn't been service in a while change the oil. Gears whine as the start to wear and get shiney. The gear lash gets larger and creates the whine. If it's working fine a the fluids are OK, drive it. Anything short of a master rebuild will not stop the whine. Good luck
