Ok, so I have been chasing this problem for a while now. Finally decided to get my fuel pressure tested. Pressure was all good, I think.. At idle it was 41-42 PSI. So went out on a test run with a mechanic that had this HUGE scanner hooked up to it.
While monitoring my torque converter, the line was jumping up and down a lot. When I would let go of the pedal, the line would instantly drop, meaning torque converter is "off?". And while driving while it was slipping, I would tap my brakes while still on the throttle and the rpms would instantly jump to 2100 or so from 1k rpms. I was driving between 45-55 this whole time, Supposevly when the TC is supposed to kick in. I think the mechanic said he felt the "shutter" from 0-90 rpms. Not sure what exactly that means? Is that terribly bad?
Is this information true?
So I dropped off my car at the transmission center that rebuilt my transmission about my 10k miles ago and they say everything is fine and no TC codes. I was convinced that it was the torque converter for sure.
What do you guys think? Any suggestions or comments? I really think that's it the TC. Or what?
This problem is really bothering me! I just want it fixed. Only vehicle for me and my wife.
