I would try a service on it and see what's going on. Pelican has an Tech article on it. I did mine with no problem. It could low on fluid too, which is not good. By draining the oil, removing the pan you can see in the bottom of the pan you can then judge by the debrie if any the damage. Mine had a fair amount of sludge in the bottom but did not effect the trans. There are 4 magnets that collect metal, mine had just a little or a touch, again not bad. Mine was low, at least 2 liters, not that's not good. Let us know what you find. I saw some Tips on ebay some time back, just in case.
