Default Shift kit installed - slight noise in M 1?

Hey guys,
I just installed the shift kit tonight. Went pretty well overall.

When in Manual 1, I hear a slight hiss. I actually here a click like a solenoid is doing something when first engaging or going into Manual 2. When in Drive or Manual 2, there is no noise. I hear this noise just at idle in Manual 1. For all I know, this could have been this way previously but I never noticed. Anybody else have this symptom?

Thanks,
Tom

As long as you fluid is topped off, and the trans is shifting fine, I'm sure your going to be ok. I didn't notice any weired noises from my trans after installing my shiftkit.

Man, I must be missing something. Then again, my trans is probably giving me the silent treatment until it serves me papers. lol
