Default What happens when the torque converter fails

One coasts into a lay by (in our case on the A34 with the traffic thundering past), an enormous Italian lorry parks up behind you, the driver gets out on the near side, swings a shower head out of the side, strips off completely and enjoys his shower. My wife was entranced.

One presumes a second shower head on the other side for use on the continent

Now for the technical bit. In our case all that happened was that the front end was just disconnected from the back end, no drama but no drive either. I am told however that there is normally lots of noise but no drive.
