    Sounds like I need a new torque converter. Trans temp climbs going up hills and my trans guy thinks it's the TC. Cooling system is fine. What converter do you guys recommend or should I stick with OEM?

    Does it over heat or act weird? Tranny temps will climb under load. I watch mine rise and fall on the scan gauge all day. I usually stabilize in stop start traffic at around 190-205. Hop on the hwy and it goes down to 175-185.
