Re: cvt transmission noise when in reverse
I just listened carefully to my 2007. The sound it makes in reverse is different than the sound in all other gears. It is only slightly louder and is not extremely high and whiny, but it is a little bit. If you are noticing a loud, high noise, I would get it checked out. It's probably nothing, but I've only had this car for less time than you so I would get this confirmed.

If the whining occurs only when in reverse, whether reversing or idling then it could be related to the "Reverse clutch".
I would suggest you call your dealership and tell them about it. Hopefully they'll recommend that you visit the dealership for a quick check-up. Unless they tell you otherwise, I would not be very concerned for now.

I have an 06 HCH. When I purchased the car from the dealer brand new the salesman told me that when backing up in reverse the transmission does make a whining noise. He told me that the HCH I's made a much louder noise than the HCH II's. Sounds like you are hearing the usual noise in reverse, but always error on the side of caution and take it by the dealer and let them have a once over on it.

Greetings all, I went to dealer about noise and they want me to book car in for check over, However since the time I heard the overly noticeable whine,the noise that has not returned! To the level it was at when noticed originally. I feel the slight noise in reverse now is normal for these units! I will let dealer check car over thou and post any findings.
