sounds like torque convertor outlet screens are clogging with clutch debris and shutting off oil flow to make trans operate = trans rebuild time
turn engine off 15 minutes-- usually lets it gravity clean the screens-good for another 15-30 minutes drive to get off freeway or home etc
how does the fluid look and smell..like burnt sugary smell and black= not good

I have no lights on, the fluid looks kinda brown but it doesnt smell burnt and when i started it up its makin some weird noise coming out from the tranny side. i have about 134xxx miles on it. it drives fine in the beginning but it starts to lag.. should i change the tranny or there's another cheaper way to fix this??
