hi guys i have a 2016 ram sport with a hemi and an 8 speed trans. about in February I started herring a chirping sound coming from under the truck. it took me a while to figure out were it was coming from. doing my own tests and research I figured out that it was coming from the trans.
this is what i come up with, as soon as the trans temp reaches 185 in temp I get a chirping sound. it almost sounds like a squealing belt.
so my trans temp is mostly staying between 190 and 200 degrees and it only takes takes the truck about 12 min to get to that temp.
the trans shifts fine. seems to go through the gears fine, it is just the noise that it makes. to me it seems to be coming from the convert part of the trans. is there anything that anyone can tell me. i am not sure were to start. most trans shops wont look at it because it is a dealer only tranny. any help would be much appreciated.
