Turns out her torque converter was toast, burned fluid, game over. But, the dealer is giving her a better price to install a rebuilt trans than AMMCO, and her pension is about to kick in. Bummer, but guess it could be worse.
What kind of things might cause this at 70,000 miles? Low'high on fluid? Dirty fluid? Or just fluke?
