Hello. I hear noise when putting the car on reverse and car performance is poor on hills. Althought this noise sartrd sisnce I climbed a hill. Is it the torque converter or the diferential. I checked the transmission fluid it was pink and clean. What is the differential fluid.

thank you

Differential is where the CV axle shafts connect to trans. The fill hole for differential is on firewall side and is hard to see from above.

If axle seals at trans are leaking, then the differential is most likely low or out of fluid. If out, it will eventually sieze, so get it refilled ASAP. Use trans fluiid as lubricant.
