Possible causes of extraneous sounds in the automatic transmission:
*Low Transmission Fluid Level: Insufficient fluid can cause component friction and noise.
* Dirty or old transmission fluid: Over time, the fluid accumulates impurities and loses its lubricating properties, which can also cause noise.
* Worn clutches: These components are responsible for transmitting torque, and their wear can lead to noise and slippage.
*Damaged Gears: Worn or damaged teeth may produce grinding or squealing sounds.
* Faulty torque converter: This device that transfers torque from the engine to the transmission can also cause noise.
* Solenoid problems: These solenoid valves change gears and if they fail, they can cause noise and shifting problems.
* Worn bearing: Worn bearings may produce a hum, vibration, or grinding noise.
* Mechanical Problems: Serious mechanical problems, such as cracked or broken components, may also cause abnormal sounds.
Actions you can take:
* Check the level and condition of the transmission fluid.
* Replace transmission fluid and filter if necessary.
* Check for fault codes and read them using an OBD-II scanner.
*Consult a qualified mechanic for diagnosis and repair.
Caution: Please avoid driving with abnormal noise coming from the automatic transmission as this may result in more serious damage and costly repairs.
