Tranny noise


Recommended Posts

Hey everybody 87 4wd DL wagon push button 4wd got a real weird noise coming from tranny loud humming or vibration as speed increases does not matter if it's in 4wd or no. Any Ideas? :confused:

 

Hmmm, sounds like my problem... (88 push button 4wd DL Wagon)

Started two days ago, louder when I step on the clutch, sounds a little different in any gear, changes with speed of the vehicle, not the engine.

 

I was guessing the fluid may be low, but the guy at the oil change place says he can't check it because it's a complicated process involving the speedometer and they aren't set up like a shop. He said he does see signs of a slight leak.

 

Chilton's says just check the dipstick to the left of the engine oil dipstick. I don't see this second dipstick. Can the guy from the oil change place be right?

 

How can I check/add manual transmission fluid?

-Leo!

If your spare tire is located in engine compartiment, so under her is second dipstick.
