Transmission?
Transmission? Well I hoped it wouldn't happen to me....
4th gear started to do that thing where it feels like a misfire for about two days and now it started whining and making a cshhhhhhhh sound. Also fluid went to a brownish color. Should I try adding fluid if it is about a quarter inch over 'Add' after driving it?
I'm screwed aren't I...

Interesting, I was sitting at a gas station today just idling and my car made this hiteous whining/screeching noise from the engine bay. The car was in park and was warmed up. And I am experiencing the same issues you are as well, mine is going to the dealership tomorrow to see what is up with it.
But it sounds like the transmission is the problem.

Yeah from my past dealings, my dealership wont address any whining or misfire like symptoms. Guess I am just going to have to wait until the tranny goes completely for them to fix it, hopefully it will be sometime soon, so I can say I told you so...

Anyway, your trans needs a rebuild.
A stock rebuild up here costs 1900 plus 600 for removal and installation. So about 2800 after fluid and tax.
If I didn't do engine mods and trans mods, I could have bought LS1racing's Buick and had an 11sec car! (I think this might become my new sig.)

And if that is the case changing the fluid and filter will do no good as the internal damage is done unfortunately. It would be a waste of time and money to just service it at this point.
Hope that takes a little mystery out of it for ya.
