Wrong fluid? I'd go back to the dealer and let them know. Between the fact that they just changed the fluid & that you're still under warrantee, you shouldn't have any problems getting your issues addressed.

Sorry I couldn't be of more benefit.

I bet there's an FMEA somewhere with "high pithed whirling noise" on it.

changed fluid one more time not nearly as much metal in pan this time but only 150 miles on fluid. drove and noticed a little of the noise at a shift point and a couple of times when decelerating to almost a stop i would get some sort of a squeal noise. my warranty was up about 5 months ago. im thinking of taking it to a tranny shop and letting them go through it. is there any beef up parts for these trannys if i decide to do this. i do have an after market warrenty but heard they are useless if you put a lift or big tires on i have 35s
