Then in 2013 it began stalling at lights after the shudder and sometimes without the shudder. Again leaving no codes. I'm a ase certified master tech of forty years. A torque converter lockup could cause it to shudder and…

It is quite scary because you have no idea what will happen…

This was happening once in a while before, but now is happening multiple times a…
