My '89 240 wagon has a standard shift, and I just replaced the manual transmission with a 110,000 mile used one. The car has 310,000 miles. Lately the rear end has started howling when I get to 2nd-3rd gear, and is not engine RPM related, it seems to be speed related. Sounds like a throaty medium-range howl, in the rear of the car. My mechanic thought it might be the differential bearings.
What do you think?
