Transmission noises..need help
Transmission noises..need help
I was driving last night and when i went to shift to 4th it grinded bad. It didn't sound like like the gear was grinding though but it would feel like it would throw the shifter away from it, but it wouldn't let me shift to 4th...so i tried shifting to another gear, and it wa slike the tranny locked out all my gears. Pulled up to a red light(thank god) and with a little work it was able to shift to 1st, and then seems fine the rest of the night.
took it out again, and it didn't exactly do the same problem, but it did make a weird noise....not sure how to explain it except that it was kinda like a humming/groaning noise, with a slight vibration. But didn't do the whole time..only sometimes
there is no slipping or loss of power...yet anyway.
ok, a better way to describe the noise...
If you take one of those toy cars that you pull back and let them go..pull it back and pick it up and let the wheels spin. that is what it sounds like...on a larger scale and with a light vibration
don't ask how i came up with that..i'm just weird i guess
It will start and then just kinda fade out. Does it more often when downshifting at a slightly higher speed, like 5th to 3rd at 50 mph.

Re: Transmission noises..need help
well I took it to this transmission place down the street, and they didn't hear any noises when they drove it, so i went by and drove it with the tech riding with me, and of course...no noise. On my way home it seems like I can hear the parts moving a lot more inside the tranny...of course that's with the windows up and music off. I never noticed hearing it before, but i also might just be paranoid
