  • car went crazy??

    several things went crazy today on the way to work, any help is appreciated.
    on the drive to work at about 65 twice i lost 500 rpm for no apparent reason. the needle dropped from 2 down to 15 stayed at 15 for a few seconds and then climbed back to 2. then i got to the stoplight at the end of my 30 mi. trip and the oil lost 15. it climbed back to 60 once i left the light but the oil has never dropped before, its always stayed within 1-2 of 60. now the last of it. my tranny went schizo, it climbs through the rpm normal and even shifts at the right time but its shifting hard. im talmking 350 turbo shift kit hard.
    any ideas???

    Check your trans fluid level. If that's OK, your torque converter went goofy. Time to replace it. You might as well go with a higher stall.
