Default 2014 IS 350 8 Speed Transmission Whine - 275 Miles ODO

Hey Everyone,

Picked up a 2014 IS 350 F Sport (ultra white with red interior if curious) and have been having a blast with it over the weekend. One thing I noticed yesterday though was some transmission whine when accelerating, I drove it home about 25 miles so the tranny and engine where pleanty warm and checked the fluid, and between the two indicators it was touching the bottom dot.

If I remember correctly this should be an accurate reading while the engine and transmission is hot, or am I remembering wrong?

Wanted to get a little advice before taking it in to get it checked out.

That's normal. It comes across even in videos. Nothing to be concerned about.

Same issue here. Just under 1000 miles. 2014 IS350 F Sport.

Initially I thought it was a wheel/bearings issue but I noticed the whining stopped when I moved the shifter into manual mode.

Any response/idea on what is happening here would be helpful.

Thanks!
