Mild wining noise from Auto Tranny?
Kia Spectra - 2004. Changed the transmission fluid yesterday (by flushing out through the radiator hose as mentioned in manual) with recommended transmission oil. Oil is now topped up to level. However I started hearing(not sure it was there before) a mild wining noise (more like winding a spring) when releasing the gear from parking. It is only for a brief period and goes away. Never occurs in any of the gears either ways. But could hear when moving it back to Parking.
I start to think it is the sound of torque converter starts to engaging the other half. More audible due to viscous new oil. Did any one come across this?

Probably low fluid level. You maybe thought it was topped off correctly, when refilling it you should have shifted through all of the gears then return to park, then check the level. Always check it when the engine is at operating temperature and running.
