Well first of all I want to thank those who convinced me to put some time into my 97 EB AWD. It's been a blast the last few months working on it and especially getting parts for it.
I do however have one issue that I don't know how to attack, the torque converter shudder. It always happens around 45-50 mph with OD engaged and light throttle. With OD off it doesn't seem to happen. If I power through at higher revs it's fine, but I'm afraid with so many miles on the EB that I'll eventually do more harm to it.
What's a good fix? ATF flush? Dr. Tranny Instant Shudder Fix? I've been driving it more now that I have put extra goodies on it, but I really don't want to do a trans rebuild just yet.
