Default 2011 EZGO RXV very loud whine

Has anyone ever had an electrical current issue with their EZGO RXV? My 2011 electric has a super loud whine when I drive it. I just bought it a few weeks ago from a private party but things dont sound right. unfortunatley i cannot upload a video but i can email it to anyone willing to check it out. If so please private message me. I send the video to a local dealer and he said it sounded like an electrical current issue but I would need to bring it in for further diagnosis

RXV's are known to be louder than other electric carts. A super loud whine could be either the input shaft or the rear end gears as well. I've seen both cause it on ones I have owned and worked on. I'm just tossing ideas out there. You could upload the video to youtube and post a link here.

Definitely input shaft or rear end gears in my opinion. The fact that when the motor's regen braking starts to slow the cart it gets louder again kind of reinforces my thoughts. I really don't think it's electrical.

Sounds very similar as mine, until i changed the hole Transaxle. New Gear Oil + new Input Shaft w/Bearings didn't brought any success. The problem seems to be the complete Gearset... Try to bring up short Video, taken with the old one.

Here's the promised video for " Soundcheck "
I've purchased the new Transaxle fm a dealer in your State ( i live in Germany ) 1100$ + International Shipping + import charges. Installation by myself ( not really difficult ).
