Maybe you just didn't pay attention before? since the day I bought my car brand new it has made a loud and very noticible whine from the gear reduction in 1st gear. My cavalier did the same thing, so it must be normal.

Like stated above, you prolly just never noticed it before. I also have had this same noise since the day I bought my car brand new. Its totally normal, and every car does it. Some are just more loud than others. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you cuz what ur describing sounds totally normal
