S4 trans hum

[Zibracorp@aol.com]

I posted a request for phone info for my recent S4 purchase with an aside
about a hum/groan that seems to come from my rear end, and was blown away by
someone that had a similar noise and had to replace the entire transmission.

Does anyone else have any experience with this noise? It sounds like a hum or
grumble coming from the rear of the car, and is only apparent above 65 mph or
so. I have only driven the car once on the highway, and will spend more time
assessing the noise and its origins.

Does anyone have any warranty strategies to share, the car is a '93 with 48K,
and is out of warranty as far as I know. I have a friend of a friend who is a
dealer mechanic and may be helpful also.


Thanks,


Art McKinley
