Default 2016 Jeep JK Rubicon Automatic Transmission Whining weird noise

Hello.. I appreciate if anyone can help me about this grinding/whining noise at Transmission when I put on D or R!
Jeep is bought in US and currently is in Europe.
Non warning light is shown, trans fluid never change, all other services are done correctly!
Trans fluid level is okay, a little bit brown color but its time to change it! But I don't think the noise is coming from the unchanged fluid!

Video link of the transmission noise, it can be hear clear when I put in D or R:

I'm guessing that is a whining torque converter.

Could be flex plate cracked or loose or like Resharp said TC gone kaput. Either way involves tranny removal.
