Keep complaining about the trans.

The whinning is either a bad differential or the driver shaft is out of balance.

You can disconnect the negative battery cable for about 5 minutes and then reconnect. This will reset the or reflash the trans. It might not change anything but it should'nt hurt it either. Sometimes it will get rid of the lurch or at least make it a little better. If it does'nt work it sounds like you have to bring it back to the dealer anyway so it might be worth a try.

Disconnecting the battery for any period of time will NOT reset the transmission control module. You need to reprogram it (at the dealer).

Sorry, That info was given to me by a member of this forum. Jagmaster said that you could reset the tcu by disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes. Bad info I guess.
