I have a strange one, my 2002 SE all of a sudden did not want to shift, then it decided to go nowhere, I towed it home and tried it again, the pump was whining but it went into gear and moved forward and backwards, it then got quiet and quit moving again. I put a guage on the service port and started it, the guage went to about 130 psi then as the pump got quiet it dropped and was like pulsing at around 40/45psi and quit moving. It is full of fluid and the vehicle has 210,000 on it but I have changed the fluid every 40,000 miles and never found anything hateful. Could it be that the filter is sucking up crap and choking the pump? It puzzles me that it whines first and then gets quiet, I think it should be the opposite. HELP!
