Does the sound come from the trans? As far as a limiter, I question that. Have you checked the trans mount? Also, is the vehicle under factory warranty still? I believe it has a 60K powertrain warranty.

Let me know. However, make sure the trand mount is tight and not damaged.

LEt me know what you find, and thanks for using 2carpros.com.
