Hi, I sure hope you can help me. Recently my car started changing gears rough. It feels like a buck into gear. This is not constant just yet. I can pull over turn car off for few minutes and it will drive fine agin for 15 more miles or so. This occuring more frequent and the bucking is getting rougher. My check engine light will also come on and off. Diagnostic said torque converter clutch. Please advise on what you can THANK YOU SOOO MUCH

The torque convertor clutch (TCC) is a solenoid that locks convertor for better mileage.

If malfunctioning, it can cause car to stall at stop lights or stall when putting into gear.

Have it replaced at trans shop, generally you do not have to remove trans to change it.
