New trans installed

Had a new trans installed yesterday, any break in noises, vibrabtion that i need to be prepared for? Only drove a few miles first time in reverse made some dragging sound but not sure how much is in my head or does TC have break in groans. Have not checked fluids levels yet and will do that today

When I had mine rebuilt there were no noises etc. Definitely check fluid last thing you want is the new transmission never got filled...
‘Check at OT, idling...

Never had a new tranny..Only new converter.

Any noise from transmission is no good.

Also go through all gears with time to engage and leave idling in park,to check fluid.
