replacing the torque converter fixed this issue for me...

however, I went with a remanufactured one ($300) vs a new one ($2800) and one day I floored it from a light and some other issue came up, there is now extra grip in the system - when I am at a full stop, the engine is sending a little more power than normal to the wheels and I have to apply extra pressure to the brake to stay still. I've been dealing with this for several years without issue. I do plan to replace the TC again, but I just don't have the time/energy to do it myself again and labor is like $800-$1000
