Torque Converter

[seantn1k]

Well in a feat of genius I decided one night that I was just going to power brake with the old i30. Well I think I've killed my torque converter and I'm hating life.

So every time I'm at a dead stop and I left off the gas I get a really high pitched noise that cuts in and out. If I put the car in neutral the noise goes away. Is this something that is easily correctable or am I stuck with having to replace my torque converter? (If so does anyone have one or know of a good aftermarket one?)

Thanks,

do you have a sample of the noise?

[seantn1k]

I don't, I'll see what I can do. However, it is a high pitch whirring noise that comes and goes.

Thanks,

Could it be the brakes?(safety squeeler)

No idea if the Torque Converter is your actual problem, but if it is, PM me because I have a spare one sitting around since I swapped mine to 5Spd.

Hey!

I'm still not one hundred percent sure if it's the torque converter, but I would like to try out that torque converter if you still have it.

Thanks,
