" First of all, I apologize for my poor English. "
I own a 2009 stock Jimny at 136.000 km. Also it has an automatic transmission.
My problem is this : Such a sound comes when I climb the steep slopes at especially low speeds with my car.
What could be the problem? What should I check? Thank you so much.

This will promote extra pressure in the transfer box and that means noise. If you need low range with hubs locked periodically drive over a surface that will allow wheels to spin. This will relieve pressure in the transfer box. Also bear in mind that using the transfer box is inherently noisy.

Sorry for the missing information and thank you for the answer. In the video, my car was in 2WD mode. I rarely use 4WD and 4WD-L modes. If I use it, I only use it on slippery surfaces.
