Ok, recently got this car, it has quite high mileage, like in the 200,000's.
Anyway, the thing runs quite well, except some transmission issues. Sometimes they are there, sometimes not.
I had it scanned and the only code that popped up was the one in relation to the torque converter being stuck.
The car will sometimes hard shift into reverse or drive, and when driving it will shift into second kind of rough. Sometimes it will act as if it does not want to get out of second, accompanied by what seems low grinding?
I've not had the trans fluid changed or anything YET. Instead I've been looking at another trans for it.
My question is, should I go ahead and have the fluid changed, trans flushed and a filter added, or just consider the replacement transmission?
The car hadn't been driven in a long time, and most of the miles are from the highway. Anyway, any and all advice is welcome.
