Transmission noise

[Mdark]

Is it common to hear an older Ford power steering whining noise on a 2021 crosstreck.
2 litre when taking off from a stop? It's extremely noticable all the time. I'd like to have a proper idea of what I'm dealing with before taking to my dealership. I'm still under Subaru warranty.
Thank you in advance for help!

I have an old ford and if i heard that PS noise in a 2021 coming from the transmission, i would get it in a shop ASAP. it's still under the 36 month warranty? you must have bought it right before Xmas of 2021.

My 2006 impreza has this noise coming from the 5 speed manual at 245K miles, not as loud as the Ford, but i am keeping an eye on it and deciding whether to fix or replace the car. A 5 speed rebuild is approx $1300. 2 years ago, probly more now.

As to why it's making that noise, you didn't say which trans you have but if it's AT, a CVT, most likely the Torque converter. If it's the 5 speed manual, one of the shaft bearings, extremely dirty gear oil or low gear oil. this oil should have been changed no later than 50K miles.

Assuming of course it is the trans, could be something else and noise is just traveling back and appearing to come from transmission tunnel

one other thing, if it's a 5 speed, and the noise only happens when you depress the clutch pedal, and goes away immediately when you release, then throw out bearing on the clutch is bad.
fix is a full clutch replacement as it makes no sense to drop the transmission only to put old clutch parts back in

My apologies! It's a CVT that I have and with 49k miles or 82 km, with extended powertrain Subaru warranty. I'm having Subaru investigate it! So far the fluid is at correct level. They did what they called a tech diagnostic along with audio recording,so it was told to me by servicing at the dealership. They said to wait for a further update the status. Expecting to have further update from dealership by Friday latest.
Except for the groaning sound the CVT operates normal. Thanks for the input potentials
(Foot note): Would have bought an old F**d if I wanted unnecessary attention.

could be chain slip if it's groaning, this is the cvt "metal drive belt" that rides on the vaiable pulleys

i got our old f150 running and driving like new after it sat in a field for 10 years, birds and mice nested in it. Cost a few tousand dollars and some time. on a new car, a few thousand dollars won't cover the repair on much
