Tranny Knock? (help)

What does a Torque convertor do when it was going out? I have one that a friend of mine brought in that has some sort of knock in it, coming form the tranny (auto). Could a bad Toque convertor be the problem?, the tranny fuild was changed, and the filter has also been changed, if not would any one know what it may be comming from?

Thanl you

Tranny Knock? (help)

Alittle more info: the tranny is an overdive, and the slight knocking starts after the engine has time warmed up, the knock can be heard while in park, it is 4x4. Any other info need?
If the fly wheel was chip or cracked wouldnt it make more of a matalic pinping short of noise? i while try to got alook at the flywheel withend th next few days and inform you on what I find out.

thank you

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 28-Mar-01 AT 00:28 AM (EST)[/font][p]I agree with trouble. A cracked flywheel will knock, not ping.
You won't see any cracks by just looking. You will need to pull the tranny. If the flywheel is broken it will be broken in a circle just outside of the flywheel to crankshaft bolts.
