Can a torque converter cause rough idle?
Rough Idle is another common symptom. If you are feeling that your idle is a bit jumpy and sometimes too low and sometimes too high, it could be a problem with the torque converter. If the torque converter is faulty you can get a lot of different pressures inside of it, which will cause rough idle.
