I have a 99 Spyder with a 2.4 auto trans. The problem I'm having is when cruising at around 35-40mph the car seems to kick in and out of converter lockup. I took it to a trans shop and the had it for 4 days trying to figure it out. They changed the fluid and screen and flushed the converter and valve body. It also has a vibration at idle when in gear. Im thinking the vibration is motor mounts but im not sure. They are start in to tear but they aren't broken yet. Any ideas on what to test to try and narrow down whats causing the lockup issues? Thanks for your help!
