Hey guys...I just took delivery of an 06 Indigo Ink 4x4 double cab with the 6spd manual and I'm absolutely loving it. But, I'm noticing a subtle whine at highway speeds if I feather the throttle just right. It's right between load and backlash that I can hear it. I *think* it's the rear-end and not the tranny b/c as soon as I hear it, I can depress the clutch and it remains...i.e. it follows the speed of the truck, not the speed of the tranny. It's really not that big of a deal but I was just wondering if anyone else has the same whine.
Subtle Whine from rear-end

Check the rear diff oil level? Does it do it if you kick it into neutual while moving? My auto is silent. No gear noise at all.
mine does exactly that too. I can hear it whirring right as I let off the gas (or clutch in), under load i don't hear anything. And it definitely sounds like it's coming from the rear. I have royal purple in the rear and have checked the level and it's fine. I was thinking it was the RP (changed out the gear oil at 3k and don't remember if it made noise stock) or just tire noise. what tires do you have?

I had the same issue but coming from the passenger side, only happens when the wife is in the truck:lol: .
