[QUOTE="rpmnut, post: 488578, member: 20757"] Like any mechanical component in your car, the gearbox will start giving signs if it's about to throw a fit. From my own experience, my ZF auto gave these signs before the torque converter gave up: - jerky upshifts, especially under part throttle; - clunky downshifts; - increased fuel consumption (slipping lock-up clutch); - funny "burning" smells after long drives; and - "clunking" noises when engaging drive.
