Well, we might be getting our minivan back today.
I brought it to a transmission shop and they found that the torque converter had failed.
So, instead of swapping out a transmission for $2,500.00, it'll be about $1,100.00
While it was up on the hoist, the mechanic noticed some major wear on the right front lower control arm (ball joint) was about to fail.
Well, that part comes as the whole control arm... for another $450 bucks! DAMN...
Oh well, I hope it'll last us for another 3-4 years without any other problems!
