Hi..Thanks for the hint...yes it sound likel a owl kind of and 140k just passed..no matter what gear you at but is definitely not doing that at the 1st gear...when you in the motion and fully step on the gas it hoot...so
Shall i give a go with atf flush+filter? Keep the same atf oil(which one it is actually??or shall i get the lfg8 in?? I am bit worried that something will go wrong with the tranny once new oil is put in as stated on some forums.
