Auto Trouble

[sh@un]

The auto in my Stag has recently decided it doesn't want to lock up the torque converter any more (not merely a problem with the overdrive button)

Any experienced automatic tranny peeps on here know if there is a chance this may just be a solenoid issue, or is the trans going to need to be replaced/reco'd? It has done over 300K.

Has the warning light come on or has it gone into limp mode? If not then its a mechanical failure, you can replace just the torque converter but without knowing how much of the friction matrerial has gone through the box and how much other damage there is, it is hard to tell.

But with 300k on the clock, i would give her a freshen up

No warning lights. Runs normally apart from the O/D issue.

Cheers for reply.
