Default 77 Transmission chirp?
In the last few weeks there seems to be a chirp sound when the auto shifts from first to second and from second to third. What is it and what to do? Chirps seems like any speed, easy pedal or heavier.

It was just low trans fluid. Got to remember basics... Had two C3s years ago then years with two C5s, now back to this C3! And still a C5.
