Could be the same as what happened to mine. Mine whined slightly and then gradually got worse over about 4 weeks. Bearing was on it's way out It was easier & cheaper to change the whole box.

Drain your gearbox oil & see if there's excessive metal in it. Mine came out looking like glittery black nail polish
