When we first start up the car it doesn't want to go in gear. After we sit for a few minutes it will engage and drive. Once we have been driving for about 5 minutes we have no prolems other than a few noises, that might be a loose belt, I'm not sure what the noise is. It also seems to have a bit of a whine when it goes. We just replaced the transmission fluid and filter, and have replaced the oil, and air filter. Could it possible be that we just need to change or tighten the belt? I am hoping this is an easy fix. It is driveable now, but I don't want it to break down while we are dirivng.
