Ok so I have a bad feeling my transmission could be possibly going. I'm hearing a humming/whining sounds while in gear and hard to shift gears sometime (especially reverse). And has slight grinding in third I think. Any help on trying to pinpoint exactly what it could be would help a lot
 
First off, check level and condition of fluid. Then come back to us.
 
It's a 26mm hex head on the front, upper portion of the case. Looks identical to the drain, but it's up high. Removed the plug and see if you can touch fluid when you stick your finger in.
