    AOD causes vibration

    After a long hunt last year for cause of vibration in the car we have located it to the AOD. Flexplate or converter have been suggested. And if it is the converter, are there different type of converters for the AOD?

    Can't identfy vibration

    Car is out og winter garage, and I am back at my problem. Last check by guru-mechanic concluded that the vibration is there at idle (at different rpms), and problem started after AOD swap. He hinted that it could be caused by faulty converter in AOD. Anyone experieced with this?
