2007 Buick Park Ave Transmission Whine

It's a 2007 - no warranty left on that car?

I've got a 2000 Century that's been doing it for years. I would have thought GM had fixed it by now.

Section: 07 - Transmission/Transaxle Bulletin No.: 0O-07-30-002B Date: July, 2002

Subject: Slips, Harsh Upshift or Garage Shifts, Launch Shudders, Flares, Erratic Shifts and Intermittent Concerns, DTC P1811 or P0748 Set (Replace Pressure Control Solenoid Valve Assembly)

Condition: Some owners of the above vehicles with a HydraMatic 4T65-E transaxle may comment on harsh upshifts or harsh garage shifts, soft shifts, shudders on hard acceleration, or shifts erratic. These conditions may appear intermittently or set a DTC P1811 or P0748. During diagnosis, a low or high line pressure (actual versus desired) may be observed.

Cause: The above condition may be due to any one of the following which may affect line pressure output:

Sediment inside the pressure control (PC) solenoid valve, causing the PC solenoid valve to mechanically bind. Sediment in the valve body, causing the torque signal regulator valve to stick. Incorrect transaxle oil level.

Appreciate the replies- however my mistake in the original post -- It's a

2001 Park Avenue- NOT a 2007

Glad you told us--drove 'em & loved 'em for years & was beginning to think Buick dealers had been lying to me. s

2005 was the last year for the (in USA) Park Avenue. It continues to sell in China, and is doing quite well.

Same size - hell there's nothing the same about it at all except the nameplate. The Park Ave in China is a Holden and bears nothing in common with the Park Ave that used to cruise the US highways and byways.
