damaged transmission

Nov 09, 2006 1 Replies

I am checkin to see if anyone has any idea if a rear end collision can damage a fly wheel or any onther part of my transmission. about six months ago my explorer was parked in the drive way minding its on business when a drink driver slammed into the back of it. he completely smashed in the rear end. anyway. now i have a (chirping ) noise coming from my transmission. I took it to a tranny shop and the guy told me that it is possible for that to have happend..



Well, if it was smashed hard it could have put a lot of load on the parking pawl inside the transmission, might have chipped some metal off it. Was the driveshaft rammed up into the transfer case? Maybe the noise is coming from the transfer case (if your's has one).
