Grand Caravan. Took a chance on it and bought it cheap cause it has an issue. Drives decent when cold the when warm there is a noise by the transmission similar to what you would hear when the power steering pump is starved of fluid. Would act as in neutral unless drive it extremely slowly. How do i change the fluid if there is any left in it?

Good evening,

You sure do have a lot of vehicles.

That is the sound of starving for fluid. This is caused by either a clogged filter or a bad front pump.

I would drop the pan and change the fluid and the filter. Then see if it still makes noise.
