    FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, list the CAR TYPE! CONVERTERS usually do NOT need replacing any more unless it is an OLD GM car!  SOUNDS like you need a DRIN and FILL of the trans fluid AND VERY SOON! TRANS fluid wears OUT after about 5-6 years as it LOSES it's friction coefficient!  And most folks do NOT know you must replace the BRAKE FLUID every 2-3 years as it truns onto CORROSION and gets TOXIC and ruins MASTER CYLINDERS and eat the LINES and HOSES from the INSIDE OUT! it is an ESTER compound that attracts MOISTURE from the air! IN HUMID areas, you need to do it MORE OFTEN! I turns into LIQUID SANDPAPER and t THEN It scratches the PISTONS in the calipers and SHRIVELS ABS pump seals, and SCRATCHES them up ,TOO! >>>the reason that most CONVERTERS FAIL is from a BAD AIR/FUEL mixture! >>>and the reason for THIS is the use of CHEAP OIL TYPES like VALVOLINE and other WAX and ASH based oils that emit harmful ACIDIC VAPORS and build SLDUGE and HOT TAR into the PISTON RINGS!  .These VAPORS recondense on the THROTTLE BODY and the IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVES and the mixture goes OFF! ALSO it makes VANISH and SLUDGE that bakes into the ENGEIN BREATHER vents on the VALVE COVERS!!>>>>It is WISE then to REMOPVE the covers and have them STEAMED CLEAN or use SIMPLE GREEN and AMSOI POWER FOAM to remove them! >>ALSO n bad OIL makes pools of  TARRY GOO that settles into the OIL PAN and COATS the engine parts with HOT GOOEY FUDGY MESS! Then it BAKES in as well! >>>USING PENNZOIL ULTRA PLATINUM will change ALL THIS and install a set of DESNO TWIN TIP IRIDIUM LAER a spark plugs for $7 each! IF this IS an OLD GM CAR< know that GM and ACDELCO makes the WORST plugs on EARTH! If you have been using VALVOLINE OIL>>>STOP NOW! It should be OFF the market! NO FACTORY ON EARTH wil use it as it ruins RUBBER HOSES and s dissolves GASKETS and SEALS over time a CAUSES the POWER BRAKE BOOSTER to FAIL from those ABRASIVE VAPORS! >>>I SUED VALVOOINE and WON BIG TIME! You can TOO!
