transmission "grind" coming out of OD
so took my new-to-me '07 on my first road trip this weekend. all was well until i started playing with the cruise. turns out it works, but when accelerating on the freeway i notice the transmission makes a grinding sound, almost like i'm hitting a rumble strip for about half a second... more of a vibration i suppose. and it's only just before the transmission comes out of overdrive, never any other instance. i'm not sure on the age of the fluid.
ideas?

If you take it to a good shop like O'neils in Cascade they will be able to hook up to it and tell you exactly what's going on. I think they charge like $80 for the diagnosis though. But they are the BEST in town. It could be as simple as a solenoid hanging up. It may even be able to be re-programmed to be fixed. Maybe the lot you bought it from will pay O'neils for a diagnosis?

This is the classic symptoms of torque converter shudder.
A drop & drain will change about half of the fluid. That should half fix the problem. Changing all of the fluid should fix all of the problem.
HERE is how I do it. This is written for the E4OD/4R100, but the procedure is the same for the 4R70W. The lines are not as easy to identify. One is on top of the other at the trans case. I don't remember which is which.

How do you add the new fluid? There is no suction in the cooler lines, it won't draw fluid out of a bucket.

i haven't put it in yet, so i don't have any results to report just yet.
