I took it to a mechanic and they thought it was a wheel bearing at first but put it on a lift and said the transmission is what is making the bad noises. I guess I've learned that getting it on a lift and running it is recommended, if you're having similar issues this will help pinpoint the issue being that remanufactured tranny is $6k. Also I think changing the tranny fluid at good intervals like every 25,000 at least will keep it healthy for anyone who's car is still lower miles. I'm suspicious that these cvts weak point is hot climite and mix that with old fluid they degrade and I think that's where i messed up.
