Ran over a rubber inner tube today which sucks it bent up the heat shield around the gas tank and drive shaft. i bent it all back out (heatshield) and its not touching the driveshaft but now i have a whining noise coming from the transmission area. the performance of the car is still all there and it shifts fine but it sounds almost like a belt squeaking but in the transmission??? got any ideas what could be happening? the tube did wrap around the drive shaft and i had to put it in reverse to get the tube off. NO visible damage


PLEASE any help or ideas would be helpful Thanks in advance

I would double check all over the place for more of the rubber tubing first. Did you throw the tube away already? Asking this because you could easly tell if you have everything. Though you could of ran over other stuff too.

I had an annoying noise I couldn't pinpoint for a few weeks. Had the car at a Caddy dealer yesterday for some warranty work and they guy took it for a test drive with me. Within a few seconds he said he knew exactly what/where the noise was coming from.

He took it in the shop and secured one of the heat shields where a weld had broken.
