Probably your alternater on its way out.
it has the wrong fluid in the transmission

Faulty wheel bearings usually squeak or squeal. A whining noise is more likely to come from a power steering pump low on fluid, or from a faulty alternator.
Normally a whining noise in the back end means the differential is shot
check transmission fluid level . then check differential oil level also that model ford needed additive in diff oil to stop noise was a ford recall on that
this is normal and nothing to worry about. Almost all vehicles make a whining noise in reverse Ford Mondeo's sound the same reversing as they do going forwards no whining also VW Passatt i think the Golf's are the same also maybe modern technology has improved this. probably bad enough listening to your wife whining you can do without your car doing it.
First thing that comes to mind is the power steering pump. Ford is famous for whining power steering pumps. The noise should be present whenever the truck is running, but more pronounced when dry steering or increase in rpm.
It's on the throttle body of the Ford Aspire.
On a 1994 Ford Aspire, the resonator is part of the exhaust system, located between the catalytic converter and the muffler. Its primary function is to reduce noise and improve exhaust flow. You can typically find it underneath the vehicle, along the exhaust piping.
What kind of howling? Or is it a whining? Where does it sound like it's coming from.
mine whines a different noise in every gear, but it will not whine when i push in the clutch, so i changed my slave cylinder and clutch and the whining noise stopped.
