Scott S. Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Hi Ray, Is the noise coming from the transmission ? Kind of sounds like the reverse band is slipping... Does it make the same sound in the forward gears too ? Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayRay72 Posted October 4 Author Share Posted October 4 It does it in forward but louder in reverse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 When was the last time the fluid was replaced ? Does it slip when driving ? Or have you not chanced that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Just a thought, but if the filter is plugged and the fluid is old, it might be what's making the noise. I'm assuming it's a TH350. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it doesn't slip. Fluid is good. I'm willing to bet it's the bands like you said. Its a 400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott S. Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 👍 Years ago I worked with a guy who owned a '74 Monte. One night he got home and parked his Monte in the driveway. The next morning he couldn't get it to back out of the driveway..... And not being mechanically inclined, he sold the car. CHEAP !!! A few days later, the guy who bought it had changed the fluid and filter, and drove it over to thank him for the fantastic deal he got. Told me the noise it was making made him think the transmission was shot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Ray, When you change the filter, check the pan for metal filings, and if the fluid smells burnt or discoloured. That'll give you a better idea if there's something bigger wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420ponies Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Well ? What is the squeak sound. I'm really curious as to what it is. Please, let us know.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alain boileau Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 🙂It squeaks going in and out of gear. Try flushing and changing filter on transmission. Also lube column shifter and see how it goes Alain🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alain boileau Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 🙂Yes I agree forgot about the u joints Alain🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott S. Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 If it's squeaking while out of gear..... Assuming it's not moving..... I don't think the U-joints are the issue. Just my $0.03...... (Canadian) lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stangeba Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 I was going to suggest you remove all the belts (2 or 3) on the ft of the engine and restart it. I'm probably way off but it's free to try it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
