What is your question?
We have had tranmission problems since about 30k, slipping and on few other occasions, engine would die when put in gear. Took to dealer multiple times and they could never find any 'codes' or duplicate the slippage, so said nothing wrong. This went on intermittantly until 125k. It is now chattering really loud when put under load. CEL came on, so towed to the dealer and they said trans is bad. I drove it back home without any problems, but didn't stress the trans. It is drivable up to the point of getting under a load. I can drive it around the neighborhood without any problems. Anyone seen this before? Any ideas of the possible real problem?

Thanx hemicuda, I appreciate the response. Sorry it took so long to reply. The fluid has always been changed by the dealer, so that shouldn't be the problem. Would these sensors cause the tranny to chatter, when under a load? It only chatters when under a medium load, but then continues to chatter when under slight load. I am afraid to drive the car any further. Leads me to believe that it may be the torque converter or flywheel. Any additional thoughts?
Thanx hemicuda! I appreciate the help.
