My transmission is a bit whiney, I wasn't sure if this was typical or if I need to change my transmission fluid?
Not really loud, and seems smooth (shifts great every time) but I didn't know if it was normal...
Just curious... Input?

it seems most aftermarket manufactures "O" rings are smaller and seep air into the pickup tube. Get something OEM.

wear, usually a slight whine going slow, does not get louder with speed.
leaky filter O ring, as Jeff pointed out a bad O ring or wrong filter (short pick up tube) will cause air the enter the system. More common on the V8 trans.
or just a clogged up filter making it cavitate

What should I use to record audio in my car?
Should I just make a video with an expensive camera w/audio and post it?

Valvoline max life dextron III, change it a couple of times with your oil changes and it will live on.
