Feels like I have a transmission shudder- any advice?

Those were the exact symptoms I was having. I was convinced it was the torque converter so I replaced it and shudder is now gone. I've put a few thousand miles on it so far since then and shudder has not returned.

 

Add LubeGuard and pray it goes away.
It doesn’t actually fix the problem. But it can make the shudder go away for awhile.

 

Did you try anything else before replacing? Curious what you paid to have it replaced?

 

I tried pan flush and refill with Instant shudder fix which worked for a while but kept coming back. I only paid $199 for the torque converter plus a couple of seals, Maxlife ATF etc and replaced it myself

 

A zero cost and easy first step would be to make sure you actually have the correct level of ATF in there.

 

Had the same thing as you. Drove me crazy. So I did a transmission flush and put in a tube of the shudder fix stuff and it went away after about 100-200 miles

 

This is an old thread but to any of you who used the lubegard fix, how has it lasted over time?

 

Converter lockup.

 

i put on about 20-25k since adding lubegaurd. it doesnt shudder anymore or make vibes......seems to have solved the issue.
