The torte converter went on my RClass 350, it cost quite alot to be repaired, since being repaired it has been back 3 times for leaking engine oil and now its losing revs and a squeaking noise is coming from the engine, is this all connected to the torte converter?

The engine leaking should not be directly related to the torque converter but the noise could be. If the oil is leaking from between the trans and engnine, that should be due to a bad end seal.

When transmission is out for torque converter repairs, the seal should have been replaced then as eseals tends to go bad over age.
