How Could you Find the Failed Torque Converter of your Car

Description:

The torque converter controls the flow of fluid from the transmission onto the blades of the impeller to maintain the speed of the car. And when it starts to fail, there is shifting problems, transmission slippage, high-speed shaking and strange noises. You may go through the s to find the symptoms of a failed torque converter in your car. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Title: How Could you Find the Failed Torque Converter of your Car


1
How could you Find the Failed Torque Converter of
your Car?
2
The torque converter of your car is a pump that
contains a bunch of blade like a spin which is a
propeller in sync with the engine crankshaft.
3
It can control the flow of fluid from the
transmission onto the blades of the impeller and
those blades attached to the input shaft of the
transmission.
4
The speed and gear of your car are determined by
the hydraulic pressure generated inside the
transmission through the process.
5
When the torque converter becomes failed, the car
engine will require more revolutions that will
decrease the transmission fluid pressure and fuel
economy.
6
Here are the signs that help you to find the
failed torque converter of your car.
7
Shifting problems
8
The delayed or the soft shifts of your car are
the common signs of the lowered pressure output
of the torque converter.
9
Instead of a nice and crisp transmission
shifting, you will feel a rough shifting means
the shifting won't engage the way it supposed to
be.
10
For increasing the torque converter output
pressure, the best way to assist the transmission
of your car is by shifting the gears properly.
11
Transmission slippage
12
When the torque converter of your car is failed,
then it won't be able to manage the fluid
properly.
13
You will either find too much or very low fluid
flow into the transmission can cause the gears to
become slippery and result to the decrease in
acceleration.
14
Due to the transmission slippage the fuel
economy of your car also decrease. So you first
need to inspect the fluid, when you notice the
slippage.
15
High speed shaking
16
When you drive your car at the speed of 30mph to
45 mph, it will begin to shake due to the issues
in the torque converter.
17
You will easily notice the high speed shaking
issues of your car when you are moving it over a
bumpy road.
18
The act of shaking will suddenly occur in car
without any warning. So, inspect your
transmission by a professional when you
experience the shaking.
19
Strange noises
20
When the torque converter of your car got
damaged, there are many different kinds of noises
are occur.
21
The whining noise can indicate that the power
steering pump has a little fluid. When the
starter mechanism goes bad, a rattling noise can
be heard.
22
When you put the transmission into gears, the
frequency and the volume of rattling noise will
increase that may create trouble in the
converter.
23
Speed problems
24
When the output of the torque converter is not
consistent, then it can increase and decrease the
speed of the car in the transmission.
25
As a result, the throttle won't have the
concurrent changes because it will be varying in
hydraulic pressure.
26
Driving the car in this circumstance can be
dangerous, so, it's good to inspect the
transmission mounts or tighten them before
inspecting the torque converter.
27
Conclusion
28
If you find any of the signs in the torque
converter mentioned above, then make sure that it
has some problem.
29
So, consult with an auto mechanic or an auto
expert to inspect it completely before taking any
decision to repair or replace it.
