My 904, I believe is having a bit of trouble. It has always locked up almost as soon as the trans shifted to third, just cruising along. A week or so ago, I was on my way home from work and it did lock up, but I kinda goosed it to get going a bit better and the car shook HARD. Dash, steering wheel was shaking like I took an jackhammer to it. But it stopped when I let off the accelerator. Didn't really know what to think about it at the time. Took around a 75-80 mile 'round trip yesterday and the converter never locked up once while we were out in it. Don't know if the tranmission fluid and filter needs to be changed and everything will be okay, or a new converter is in the future.
To the best of my knowledge, the fluid and filter hasn't been changed. I know that I haven't. Yet.
I bought a new filter and a gallon(?) of dex/merc fluid. I know that the dipstick says use only dexron fluid, but I didn't really know if this stuff was exactly what I need or I need to get another type.
