3.6 etorque engine whine

[Jim_n_Tx]

Between the power steering, the e-torque engine, and the automatic trans, mine moans and groans constantly - have started calling her "Mona".

2021 JLUR Xtreme Recon here with +35K miles, 3.6 etorque. I have started noticing a slight whine above around 3500 RMPs, mostly when on the highway. It is fairly quiet and hard to pick up, but if you listen closely, it is there. It might only be noticeable on the highway because on the streets and trails I don't maintain +3500 RPMs consistently. Is this anything I should be concerned about or have someone look at?

If you have factory warranty then yes i would say its worth a shot. It could be a bearing that is going out.

So any solutions??? Anyone??

Well, 3 years later and 66k miles on the Jeep and the whine is still there. Hasn't changed. Its normal.

If this is anything like my previous 2 door, sounds like a whistling coming from the engine bay have them replace the water pump, that's what finally fixed mine.

Dealer said they would have to take it apart to diagnose it. If they didn't find it, we'd have to pay for that diagnosis. It's on record as a concern so I guess we will just leave it that way.

Not sure how long posts are allowed to be dead before resurrecting with a post but did it sound like this?

22 JL - 3.6L(eTorque) - Grinding/Squeel/Whine? | Jeep Wrangler Forums (JL / JLU) -- Rubicon, 4xe, 392, Sahara, Sport - JLwranglerforums.com

If so, what was the resolution(if it was fixed).
