I am noticing unusual noise in 2nd gear especially when decelerating (letting the engine be the brake). This does not occur in any other gear, and is like a whining noise. I can't remember if my first wrx did this or not. This is my first non-automatic car, my first awd car, and my first turbo car (the 1st wrx doesnt count since i only got to put 4000 miles on it). There doesnt seem to be any issue getting in and out of second it just makes a noise that none of the other gears make. Should I bring this into Lithia and be without my car or is this normal?
