Torque converter has possibly slip loose from the shaft and is slipping in an out. Not going to hurt anything really just annoy the **** out of you because it's bolted to the flywheel anyways.

Yea i went with my old company, its kinda hit and miss right now so im actually looking for a part time job for the weekends because it's the slow season here which is normal but the bills dont stop coming just cause work is slack, So i got an interview at a saturn dealership about 20 min from me for a general lube tech/runner. Also have another interview that same day at 2pm for a home depot position two great jobs in my book, i love tools and i get a discount at home depot and i love cars so the saturn dealership will also have it's perks
