Symptom: Transmission Noise

Automatic: Transmission clicks during gear shifts, clunks when dropped into gear, or makes noise when in 4-wheel drive. Begin by checking your transmission fluid. If it is too low, fill the transmission with the fluid specified in your operators manual. If the noise persists call our service manager.

Manual: Transmission makes a clunking noise when you shift gears. You hear a grinding noise as you change gears even when you fully depress the clutch pedal.

 

Possible Cause:
