I changed the fluid about 15000 miles ago. Do you think it could be the filter? Or are you saying get it flushed by a shop?

I think I'd put an anti-shudder additive in it and see what happens..

i tell ya, i got the same still. I am pulling the trans in the morning. I can look under mine, the flywheel is not spinning true when its running. Going in and out. I have a new tc here too.
I jacked it up tonight and ran it to 40 mph standing still. Hoping to see something not right. No bent wheels. No wheel hopping up an down. maybe a cracked flywheel? i dont know i will see in the morning by 11am.

I took my own advice and checked the TC mounting bolts. Found a cracked flexplate. I can see three small cracks from where the flexplate mounts to the crank.
