Whining o r grinding noises often indicate worn o r damaged transmission bearings, gears, o r synchronizers. Low o r dirty transmission fluid can also cause these noises due to poor lubrication. If left unchecked, these noises can signal impending transmission failure. Rough road conditions and delayed servicing in Pakistan can accelerate wear. Immediate inspection and fluid replacement, along with mechanical repairs if needed, are crucial to avoid complete transmission breakdown.
