New TPS. Still shuddering.

No enlightenment from the data either.

Wonder how often the display updates....... it's possible the TCC is bouncing, but, the scanner doesn't see data at a high enough rate to catch it...... As an experiment, you could try disabling the TCC, and see if behavior changes. (just put a switch on the ground side of the circuit..... you would be able to disable/enable it on the fly)

I could even just cut the wire to test this out. But, what would it tell me? Wouldn't it bring me right back to the torque converter being the issue?

Pretty much..... The question becomes though, is it actually the torque converter, or something in the control for TCC.......
