Hi guys,
What I believe is my transmission is starting to act weird. It has not prevented me from going anywhere but I'd like to try to tackle the problem before it gets too bad.
When the engine and tran are cold, especially if im driving slowly up a hill, a noise will start and only be audible for about a half second and then everything is back to normal. It is the same noise I hear when I'm accelerating a lot and then suddenly release the gas pedal, but a bit shorter. Im not throwing any codes.
I had the RSN fix for a while until I started seeing metal shavings in my tranny pan, which lead me to replace the drilled plate by a fresh one. That was a while ago, and for some time I had the RSN which seems to have disappeared a little, I'm guessing mostly due to warmer weather.
I'm using 265 75 16 tires and the van weighs 7500 to 8000 pounds total constantly, which I know is stressing the tranny quite a bit. I'll probably get an oversized pan with fins.
Thanks for any help,
Phil
