I have a 89k mile 2nd gen Rodeo with the 4l30 auto tranny.

Lately (for about a month and a half)

It has been making a kind of gurgiling/boiling/bubbling sound every once in a while. Kind of like sucking the last of a drink through a straw. This sound has been coming from under my gear selecter(so I figure tranny) and lasts 2-3 seconds.

It seems to only do it when still cold because I have yet to notice it on longer drives. It also only seems to happen at slow speeds or maybe while slowing down.

These last 2 points of when it happens maybe off though because I may only notice it at certain times.


Also in other problem 'under the gear selector' is a random click sound also around vehicle startup. It sounds kind of like the switch that clicks when you touch the brakes while in park, but slightly louder. It clicks every once in a while after I have started the car and am driving around. I only seem to notice it when stopped or starting from a stop, but again this might be coincidence.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
