    My Jeeps 5-speed transmission "ticks" gears bad when I shift from 1st to
    2nd, "ticks" gears a little less when shifted from 2nd to 3rd and sometimes
    but not always it will "tick" when shifting 3rd to 4th. Never "ticks" when
    moving to 5th. There is only a problem when the weather is cold and as soon
    as the transmission warms up it disappears. The transmission shop said a
    new transmission fluid may fix the problem. Are these transmissions like
    other Chrysler transmissions where they will only accept Mopar fluid or will
    they use any brand transmission fluid with no problems? Can a transmission
    make a knocking noise that can trick you into thinking your engine is
    knocking? This morning was extremely cold and there was a new noise from
    under the hood when I started it. It was a low pitch whistle, almost
    sounded like wind. What would that be?

    thanks
