if it is driving fine and only has a whine on it if it is the gear box it may just be a bearing inside the down side is if it is anything in the gear box they are not cheap, before you go down that route though jsut give your wheels bearings a check first you never you may get lucky if not them just work back along until you come to you inner cv on the box if all is ok then you may have to get the gearbox checked
