my honda civic whines when in reverse, whether my foot is on or off of the brakes, then when I switch into drive it makes a short whine with no more noise as long as I am in drive.
I just had my tires rotated-two weeks ago. no wheel wobble or spongines in the brakes.

You're going to have to determine if the whine is transmission or engine related. If it's transmission related, you can try doing a trans. flush to see if some fresh oil cures the whine.

First I'd check the level of the oil though.
