Hey everybody. I sold my car to this girl on Friday and she came back today and the car has a ton of trouble going into any gear. It will after a ten second wait, but it makes this weird swishing sound and it's really pronounced when the car is in neutral. I checked the fluid and it was at a good level and it didn't smell burnt. The sound is definately coming from the tranny.

The car has 121K on it, but I had the tranny checked and serviced at 100K. I never beat on the car and I know the girl didn't either. Do you think the tranny just blew or did the torque converter or something else just die. Could the TCU have died? Any suggestions would be great.
