The whinning noise from my experance is caused from the filter starting to get pluged in trans. restriction the flow of trans. fluid, its more noticeable when its colder out and oil is thicker. might be a good time to service trans if you havent done it yet. I'am like you i don't know of any torque converter sensor, but if it showed up it must have one, or its something else that kicked that code out, or he read it wrong. I wouldent wory about it, its lasted this long chanses are it will last the life of the car. Did autozone erase the code? If they did When it comes on again have it scaned again and see if it shows the same code, its posible, that code could have been stored in the computer from another time the chk.engine light came on and you did not see it. It only has to come on for a split secound to store a code.

What's your problem?I have a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 3.8 that I just changed the oil sending unit and still have the oil light on, any help

possibly the light is coming on due to low oil pressure if you have high miles on the engine usually over 200xxx. try disconnecting the battery for about 15 minutes then reconnect that sometimes will reset warning lights. good luck

How do i troubleshhoot a random misfire code for intrique 1998 with flashing service engine light

You will need a scan tool.

First clear the codes, than run the car until it misfires, than see what the new code says.

What can cause my 98 olds intrigue to shift

your torque converter maybe to blame here. a simple fluid pressure test will tell you that. if the pressure is good, your valve bod might be due for a change.

Service vehicle soon, anti-lock, trac off all on

You need a new wheel bearing, This also happened to my olds alero, make sure 2 jack up each tire 1 at a time and pull back and forth on them checking for play, once you have found the 1 that has play or wobbles that is the 1 that needs a new wheel bearing
