automatic transmission groans from reverse to drive and drive to reverse is this something of concern? what should be the remedy or should i not worry about it? car drives fine otherwise

What’s the mystery vehicle? Tester

When was the last time the transmission fluid/filter was serviced? Tester

i bought the car last year at over 100,000 miles on mileage give or take a few thousand miles its currently near 119,000 miles and i havent changed the automatic transmission fluid since purchase and unsure if it was replaced previously. valvoline lube technician said transmission fluid looks dirty…

Get the transmission serviced and see if the noise goes away. That’s all you can do. Tester

+1 for above, may be a dirty filter…

what is peculiar is that i checked the automatic transmission fluid a few weeks ago it looks new (bright red) but that valvoline guy claims its dirty

The Valvoline guy is at the bottom of mechanic food chain, have a transmission shop check it out… You did check the ATF on level ground with the vehicle at operating temp and the engine running right??..

That is peculiar, a lube tech tried to sell you a transmission service. What do you think the car needs?

thoughts on what this guy says? what if i just left it alone? [Don’t Change Your Transmission Fluid]
