Transmission Dip Stick V70-XC70 1999

Can anyone tell me why my transmission dip stick will not come out. Was trying to check the fluid level and I can not get the stick to come out. Pulled as hard as I could without breaking the handle. I did notice a slight whinning noise coming from under the car last night. Could this be related. Maybe tranny issue?

Try again with a cold engine. If you can get a pair of small pliers down there, try grabbing the base of the dipstick and see if it twists. The O ring might be stuck.

New development. I was able to get the dip stick out. Now it won't go back in. It feels like something is blocking the tube. The blockage is 13 inches from the top of the tube. Any idea what might be going on. Seems very strange.
