Puffwagon Gold Donating Members 16,348 Member For: 10y 3m 22d Gender: Not Telling Posted 18/09/22 11:40 PM Share Posted 18/09/22 11:40 PM In the video it shows the revs jumping around which will be caused by the torque converter locking and unlocking. I've seen this happen before but didn't have a chance to do anything to rectify it. It would be worth swapping the converter first and see if it helps, but more than likely the converter and gearbox frictions are damaged. As you aren't doing any of the work yourself, you should consult with your mechanic to work out which is the best way forward financially. Or you could do nothing at all, live with the surging issue and replace the lot if it ever starts slipping.
