Just changed the atf back to dex-III a few hours ago, still producing a loud clicking sound. I guess it's already damaged something, sounds like somewhere in the flexplate area. Thanks for everyone who helped. I guess I'll just have to wait for the inevitable gb failure. sp3 is way too light of a fluid for that gb.

It's not light that cause the damage, it's sp3 contain much higher friction modifier that too slippery thst cause damage.
A little update. Don't think it's the gearbox. Sounds like the valve or tappet. During the atf change I changed the motor oil as well to some D2 brand10w-30 semi syn. Oil is probably to thin. Going to change that oil as well.

What engine oil and brand you were using previously?
