I have a 03 ram 5.7 4x4 that has about 150,000 on it. I had the tranny rebuilt around 110,000 miles. It has recently developed a loud whine noise to it. It shifts and drives fine but is really annoying. I've been told that it is the torque converter going amd also been told its the tranny pump. Is there a certian part that is known to go bad causing this. Dont have the money to take to a shop again but I do have mechanical ability to fix myself if possible. Any amd all help would be great
Replacing the pump is a Band aid. Depending on how severe the fluid starvation to the rest of the trans, may have other issues. Gears and clutch packs don't like to be dry.
