TRANSMISSION FLUID CAPACITIES
Shudder During Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Application
Defective oil filter or gasket, defective torque converter or defective turbine shaft "O" ring.
TORQUE CONVERTER
Note. For diagnosing torque converter clutch, see appropriate HYDRA-MATIC 4L30-E ELECTRONIC CONTROLS article.
Torque converter must be replaced for any of the following reasons.
- Damage To Oil Pump Assembly
- Metal Particles Present In Fluid
- Leaks In Hub Weld Area
- Crankshaft Pilot Broken Or Damaged
- Hub Scored Or Damaged
- Stator Failure
- Torque Converter Imbalance
- Engine Coolant Contamination
- Excessive End Play
A visual inspection of torque converter may reveal converter is Blue from overheating. If torque converter has been removed from vehicle, stator roller clutch can be checked by inserting a finger into splined inner race of roller clutch and trying to turn race in both directions. Inner race should turn freely clockwise but should not turn or should be difficult to turn counterclockwise.
Note. See appropriate AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION REMOVAL article.
