What makes the rpm decrease after a shift has occurred?
The RPM decreases after a shift because the engine is no longer under heavy load from accelerating in the previous gear. When you shift, the transmission momentarily disconnects the engine's power from the wheels, causing the RPM to drop as the engine adjusts to the new gear ratio.
What would cause a grinding sound when accelerating straight and a loud whirring at all speeds with the engine temperature a little higher than normal?
The grinding sound when accelerating could indicate a worn-out CV joint or a problem with the transmission. The loud whirring noise at all speeds could be due to a failing wheel bearing or an issue with the differential. The higher engine temperature than normal could suggest a problem with the cooling system, such as a failing water pump or a blockage in the radiator.
