    I just had my tranny oil changed and before I took it in it was shifting fine and smooth. I got it back with new trans fluid and now it grind when shifting and makes weird noises when in nuetral. Any ideas what caused this. I had it done by an off the clock toyota dealer worker . Also the emergency brake was tightened bc it wasnt working. Please give me ideals of what could of went wrong because now it is grinding and I had it up for sale thinking the fluid change would do good not harm.

    By the way its a 2000 3.4L V6 4x4 taco Manuals trans
