Re: My turbo 400 is Whining after a mechanic worked on my car

One ore bit of information about the transmission.
The way the mechanic explaned is that the front pump seal has one bad. So the whining is being caused by the fluid draining by the pump seal into the pan. Now when the car is cold and started up the pump is starving for fluid and theres air in the pump which is causing the whine noise. Once the pump has primed back up it stops whining.
I take it real easy while the car is still cold. Infact I let the car warm up real good before putting it in gear. Even when the car is good and hot the transmission does not slip or falter in anyway that I can tell.
So why has the pump seal all of a sudden gone bad. Is this common in the 400 trans?
Again can I drive the car like this or not.
Thanks again fof any advice.
