    2008 lexus GS 350 AWD
    I had a shudder between 3rd and 4th gear anywhere from like 25-35ish mph when I had little pressure on the gas pedal
    It would go away if I would give it more gas or get off the gas completely
    I had a drain and fill done at the dealer
    Drove it about 500miles and the shudder was way less frequent and the shudder felt toned down
    I had another drain and fill and now I drove it over 1,000 miles after the 2nd drain and fill and I have not felt a shudder at all in those 1000 miles

    what is the dangerous temperature? My car seems to sudden and hold the gear or slip when accelerating from 2nd to 3rd gear and when I go easy it still does it but does not really shudden. I just notice RPM jump up weirdly. There are no codes and I use iCarsift for my Mercedes. Is it a torque converter issue?

    Hi mate I dunno if this is related to my recent issue, I’ve got. 2012 Peugeot 508 1.6 e-hdi, it’s an automatic car but when I lift my legs off the breaks the car won’t move on it’s on when the gear is on Drive until I press the gas and then it rise to high rpm before moving, usually it move on it on when I lift my legs off the breaks but now it doesn’t do that anymore and when I moving fast I get a massive vibration like the round surface is uneven and follow by a stinky smell coming from the AC vent

    My 2000 Ford Ranger 3.0L will shift into Reverse and Neutral fine but it will die immediately when put in any forward gear. Could the Converter or the TCC solenoid be the possible issue. Truck was a gift and we found that no transmission filter was in it. We replaced the filter kit.

    I have an 02 Toyota Tundra, it is stalling when in gear, but not in park or neutral. The truck sat for two years, before it sat this never happened. Both times it has stalled on me there is no check engine light. When I got it running again due to a bad rack n pinion, I put heet dry gas in the tank to make sure it didn’t have water in the tank from condensation. I believe the spark plugs are relatively new. All the symptoms you listed in this video are not what I’m experiencing BUT I’ve been doing research for the last hour and this is being pointed at as a possible culprit and I would like to know if you have any tips or ideas on how I can rule this out or make sure it is the issue. Thanks in advance for your time.

    I have a 2001 Nisson pathfinder, check engine light comes on, code was P1175, I think if I remember correctly. Took it to my mechanic he says he doesn’t work on trannys. So I take it to transmission shop. First he says it’s electrical the solenoid. So he replaces it. Then tells me the check engine light didn’t go off and he still got that code. He tells me it’s the torque converter. I have to save for that. My vehicle does not give any symptoms except that the check engine light is on. What’s your opinion?

    Hello, I need help diagnosing or fixing this issue with my truck. It stalls above second gear and the speedometer flickers a lot, could be going between 30-80 km/h. Its a 2006 Chevy Avalanche. The check engine light is on with error code P0449. I've taken it to a dozen mechanics and none of them have been able to find/solve this issue. I had the transmission replaced in 2018 and didn't experience this issue before.
    Basically when the truck tries to shift into 3rd gear or above there is an 80% chance it will stall, the engine RPM will skyrocket but the vehicle will slow/stop until returning to second or first gear.
    I would really appreciate any help i can get, thanks!

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to leave this question but. My 2013 Silverado lunges on Startup and I hear a clatter noise when decelerating and reaccelerating. I assume the clatter would have been the rear differential but it sounds like it's coming from the transmission. The lunging makes me think torque converter.?
