Transmission making a grinding noise
Posted: Fri Apr 25, 2014 11:04 am
Hey everyone
Would someone be willing to take a ride in my jeep and help me diagnose a noise coming from the transmission area? It only happens under engine braking load, and it sounds like what I would think shoving a coat hangar in there would sound like. Really noticeable in 2nd and 3rd gear. It's also pretty loud in general in the higher gears. I have already tried changing the fluid (no metal chunks came out) and it was quiet during the cold months. But as it gets warmer it gets louder and louder. Could it be a tcase chain maybe? If you're willing to check it out let me know! It's hard to get it to a shop as I'm working 40hrs a week and everything closes about the time I get off. Thanks!
