Toruqe Converter Chirping after warm up..

Alright a couple of weeks ago I could hear a little chirping of what I thought was belts under the hood. Now that I have looked at it.. it sounds like the toruqe converter is chirping after warm up.. it's really annoying now.. I thought I could just turn up my system and leave it alone, but really anybody else had this problem?

Have you noticed any changes in performance of your transmission? do you feel any vibrations in relation to the chirp? Have you checked the fluid?

yea, I checked my fluid and it's nice and red, doesn't smell burnt or anything, no I havn't really noticed any performance problems or vibrations, but my front wheel bearing is going out so if there was a vibration it would shake with that as well..

Well, usually torque converters dont chirp, they usually knock or chatter. Have you ever had the engine or tranny out? I have seen the flywheel or flexplate bolts back out and cause a distinct sound.
