Well, for the past couple months I've been having a little trouble with my C4. IT'll shift fine in the morning, but once I go for a drive or start idling around somewhere there will be this really nasty sound and slip from 1st to 2nd. I thought it might be the bands so I went ahead and adjusted them today (10ftlbs, then back off 1.75). Didn't fix the problem. Level is good and a filter was replaced maybe 6K ago.
I'm starting to think that the clutches are starting to go. I didn't have any material in the filter when I pulled it off, but ya never know.
Now my dilemma. Does this sound about right, time for a rebuild? If it is... I have two options, I can build this c4 and put it back in, or I can build the AOD I have. The problem I see with the AOD is the torque converter.... whereas if I built it up for the engine I am going to build, I'm pretty sure it won't be good since the converter will be made for the more cam/power/torqu etc.? Is this right? What are my options? What are some of y'alls advice out there? If this sounds like rebuild time, should I go with the c-4 just rebuilt for now or build up the AOD and live with it until the motor is built?
Thanks
