Torque Converter Flywheel Issue

Topic starter

Hi Scotty,

I love to listen to your advice. I have a 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid with ~79,000 miles that began to shudder violently while in neutral. I connected my OCD reader and got code P0302 - cylinder 2 misfire. I had the car towed to a nearby Ford dealer and they are telling me "the torque converter and flywheel are coming apart".  This seems very suspicious to me - should I be concerned?

 

Thanks,

Peter

A failing torque converter would definitely cause shuddering as you describe. In order to repair, the transmission has to be dropped. So it's a pricey job. Maybe get a second opinion and go from there, but it could be the correct diagnosis.

a misfire can also cause jerking
