Yesterday I was driving on the freeway and all of the sudden I heard a grumbling noise, it was mainly on decel. Shortly after I lost TC lockup, it would lock intermittently. It was also shifting a bit jerky after parking it for a little, almost like it tried to go into tc lock and then popped out.
The trans temp was shooting to 230 also after this happened.
I have had a slight howl from the bell housing area ever since I built the jeep 3 years ago.
I tested the TC soleniod and the ohm test passed and I can apply 12V and hear it engadge. I tested it driving around the block and it would not lock the TC.
So what could be the coulperte? The TCU was bypassed for tests.
Would a torque converter with 20k miles on it 3 years old fail? and would it drive mostly normal?
Valve body?
I have spent about 3 hours searching the forums and nothing like this came up...
