Some Damage of Torque Converter at Automatic Transmission

Your matic car suddenly overheating while being in a state of stopping? There is a possibility that due to the torque converter is problematic.

Torque converter itself is a component that restricts the engine to the transmission. Wherein allow matic car can stop temporarily without causing continuous transmission received a boost from the engine.

Torque converter is broken not only cause the engine to heat up quickly at risk, but also slippage or even damage the transmission. So what damage that often occurs in the torque converter?


Damaged Bearing 
This problem is most common. Components such as stators, impellers, turbines and home conversion is supposed to work separately, rub against each other directly at risk because of a damaged bearing. Not only will damage the torque converter, shards of metal were carried over into the lubricant can be spread to other components.

Damaged or Leaking Gaskets
Lubrication is one component that makes the torque converter works. Leak caused this device does not work optimally. The problem not only causes the engine to heat, but also the transmission slippage or late.

Faulty Torque Converter Clutch
The failure of torque converter clutch is quite difficult to detect. Usually this causes the car continues to run even if positioned in a stopped state total. Usually the cause of the failure is caused by distortion or vibration that makes the components inside interlocked.

Problematic Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid 
This device is an electronic component that controls the amount of lubricant that enters the torque converter. Damage to these components cause lubricant entering too much or little, so that the risk of dying machine may occur or even affect fuel consumption.
