Transmission noise (sound like bearing failure)

B&W, you may have a score in 4th gear if its the only one that you are hearing it in. If the pitch is changing with rev's than its just that gear that has a slight score. Is that a popular driven gear for you (maybe you drive side streats a lot?)

I'm pretty all over the map on the gears. I think 2nd & 3rd are my favorites for the corners I get to open it up in. I use 4th on streets between lights and for some rushour stuff but not too much. Most miles are highway miles and I'm in 6th whenever it's flowing. Need to pay a little more attention, think I heard it in 3rd today.
