hello everyone. I have found some useful info browsing this forum before. but now i have come across something i need some help with. I have some issues with the auto transmission. my dad was driving it and he said it was having trouble going into reverse and when it did it made a loud/hard clunk. then he said when in drive it was whining in first and maybe 2nd but after that it was fine. so i got in this morning to see what was going on. it had the same issue when going into reverse and into drive. only going back and forth in the driveway as i dont want to cause any more damage. it was really rough and harsh when it did move in reverse and drive. i shut it off after only a minute or so. i let it set for like 30 mins or so and decided to try it again the with the OD button off. it was not harsh shifting into either gear and it wasnt harsh when moving under power. but the is a quite loud noise its not really metal on metal grinding but almost like hissing but not squealing. if anyone on here can help me out we really dont have the funds to replace it or take it to a shop so if there is anything i can do myself i am very mechanically inclined! i do all the work on this vehicle and all of my vehicles. thanks for your time
