Zman the only code is the 0455 large evap leak. My hoses are split like crazy at the canister. I really hate evap systems so I haven;t fooled with it yet.
I am taking it in Friday to a shop whose trans man is a former Dodge dealership employee. Supposed to be a great tech. WIth my schedule I just don't have much time to mess with it otherwise I'd take on what you suggest HeyYou.
I will say I drove home last night and never dropped OD. But I did get a warning light, low fuel! LOL (I really did get low on gas.)
If the t/c is coming apart internally, it is spreading it's crap throughout the trans. Just replacing might last you a little while, but, in the end, you will have to rebuild anyway, and won't be able to reuse that new converter.
