I have a 2000 expedition close to 200,000 miles The trans was slipping and there was torque converter shudder. I had the trans rebuilt and the trans performs well. However, there was some minor shudder/vibration when a load was placed on the trans- (between gears going up hills). The trans guy is great and took it back and rebuilt it again and replaced the already replaced torque converter- he is a good guy. However, I still notice a milder shudder, groan particularly if i am going up a hill around 65 to 75. It is nowhere near what is was before. Before it really shook just like driving over the rumble strips.
I really do not want to ask this guy to have another go at it if it could be something else or if it sort of normal for an Expedition to do this. If I let off the gas the noise immediately ends. i can make it happen all the time if I am going up a hill around 65 or 70. If I let this go will I end up shortening the life of the trans?
thanks for any opinions.
