Ok to add to this, can a bad torque converter be, for a better lack of words, random? After searching YouTube I found some bad torque converter videos that sounded a lot like what I heard yesterday. At one point after the problems started and before I got a tow it did drive on it's own quietly, but limited speed.Then to no movement and crazy noisy. Then before I parked it last night quiet and moved fine, same today.I tell ya, if it isn't one thing it's another. On the way home from our property tonight I had to hit the brakes pretty hard to stop when someone come around a corner way too fast and the tranny started making noises. Pulled over to the side of the road to look into it and there's a lot of clicking type sounds, kinda like you're trying to put it in park while moving. It would move forward and back, but wouldn't shift. Even putting it in park would get the noise. Made a call to be towed home and when we got there all was quiet, even switching between gears while sitting still, and it moved under it's own power to park it out of the way.
I'm hoping when I drop the pan on Wednesday I find the linkage apart, or loose. I can't afford this right now.
I've never had any torque converter problems as long as I've been driving so I'm stumped.
