The torque convertor never needs to be replaced unless it fails or if there is a major internal transmission failure. Any number of things can cause one to go out. They can vary in price depending on where you buy one at, probably $200ish aftermarket. The transmission needs to be taken out to replace the convertor so labor will cost more than the part most likely.
