Lets get to it , tossed a new transmission in 93 talon tsi awd
Today while driving i hear , an old school fire truck whine , car starts to lock up , do a 2nd gear pull , to pull over and again the old school fire truck whine , i pull over ..Every thing seems fine ,i decide to turn around and drive it back home ..If i go close to 4 grand the car locks up , fire truck again /feels like its working real hard to move :confused:
Any one have any idea's where to start or what to look for?
 
after checking some of your older posts, i think you have a problem somewhere in your driveline.
check rear diff fluid, tranfercase fluid and tranny fluid.
jack the car off the ground and put 4 jackstands under it so you can rotate the wheels individually.
also rotate the driveshaft by hand in neutral. quickly spin it back and forth and listen for clunks in the rear diff or transfercase.
make sure your brakes are not dragging and wheel bearings are good.
i hate to think a new tranny died on you.
and i hate to think your fluids ran dry.
or you used a gl4 gear oil where a gl5 gear oil was needed.
what oil do you run in your tranny and transfer and rear diff?
