second gear grinding sound on S60 automatic

Post by the_brain3000 »

hi,

i have an 2002 S60 automatic with geartronic and sometimes when it changes gears from 1st to 2nd i hear a grinding sound.

i think i mostly heard it in the morning, when i assume maybe the gearbox oil is cold and thick and some times when the car is in park for a while and then i drive away.

there is no vibration felt in the car just the sound.
should i be worried?

i have to mention that the gearbox on the car was replaced with a brand new one and the oil is fresh(i pretty much have the full 40000KM to go before i need to change it)

i forgot to mention it's the AWD model. i know this car plays tricks on you with sounds but i think it's coming from the back of the car

looks like it's the ABS check the car does when taking off. :D

The manual confirms it too so it's nothing to get allarmed for.
