Asked on June 25, 2012

Do I have a brake problem or a transmission problem?

1992 3.1 liter Lumina Transmission grinds when put into reverse.
There was also a grinding noise when applying brakes in [drive]. Applying brakes in [drive], the grinding noise lasted one second or less. I released brakes and reapplied and there was no grinding noise.
Is it the transmission or could it be the brakes?
Thank you
