so I haven't really had time to sit down and explain this but it is bothering me lol. so I dripped my tranny a few weeks back to repair an oil leak. it was dripping from the rear cam access. anyways, I pulled driveshaft ect off mount and cross member witch allowed the back of the tranny to sag no big deal. we didn't know were the leak was so I started the car up to see if it would start to leak. I let it run for a few and shut it off. still nothing so we just took it all out. no issues. we then found the leak after we got the flywheel and torque converter off. well now its all put back together and it is still leaking oil from the lower intake manifold (whole other story lol). I wasn't there when it was put back together I had to be somewere so a buddy helped me put it together hes a mechanic. anyways I go to pick it up and pull out and start rolling down the road in first gear still about 15mph or so and theres like a drone right at the top of the gear before it shifts. but when your in it I don't think it does that. im not sure what this is or if it is something of concern. would it be something to do with the torque converter. not really sure. sorry for the book but if anyone knows of anything let me know lol. thanks also other than that noise it seems like it drives fine. it just feels weird when that drone starts
