Default Transmission noise is back

I have a 42RLE, 4spd auto 2003 Wrangler transmission. It is making a whining sound. It went away for a while, but it's back again. The sound seems to be some type of cavitation in the transmission lines. If I grab the line with pliars, the sound stops. I've heard it might come from not running Mopar ATF in it. However, it seems hard to believe a different brand of the same type of ATF could make that much noise. Are there any mechanics out there that can help with some advice?
