Didn't want to steal another thread!!
I have a 99 Ford with a 7.3 PS w/210K miles on it, I,m having a rattling noise while its in 1st and 2nd gear. I was told it's the Torque Converter.
I have talked to two shops, one said that it was a known problem w/the 99s and it won't hurt anything if I left it he said it's just annoying but if I wanted to get it fixed it would be $900.00. The other (our local Ford House) told me that they didn't know of a problem w/them and I'd need to bring it in and most likely have it opened up to see what the problem is.
Okay reason for post, I need a TBH transmission person to tell me #1 what will it hurt if I leave it? #2 Is that a good price for the replacement of the TC and completely servicing the transmission. #3 What kind of mileage can I expect to get out of the engine and tranny if I do regular maintenance???
