My transmission isn't engaging the CV joints in any capacity. When in park, the wheels still move, and when in gear, they freely move the same. Shifting hears has no impact on wheel/CV movement. CV joints are in good condition and move with wheels. The shift linkage moves normal and is causing a shift in the transmission. I disconnected it to move it manually just to see if it made a difference, and it was the same. It moves freely, and I feel a difference when it clicks between gears (obviously, by gears, I mean P, R, N, D, 3, L).
I've looked underneath, and I son't see anything suspicious. The fluid is clear.
The only thing I can hear if concern, is that when I put it in reverse, there is a slight whining sound coming from the transmission, like it's trying to do something, but can't. It sounds very much like a power steering system when it's just slightly low on fluid and you're taking a sharp turn.
Prior to this happening, everything worked fine. No gear slippage, no noises, no reason to worry. When it went out, it was instant. At the time it stopped, the electrical system went a bit hectic, with lights flashing and going on and off. The battery died during the tow home. After a full charge, it starts fine and the electrical works find. There are no engine codes at the moment.
