Replacing a 2012 Honda CR-V torque converter typically costs about $500. The torque converter in your vehicle serves a similar purpose to the clutch in a manual transmission car, using fluid to transmit power to the transmission and prevent engine stalling while allowing for smooth gear changes. A leaking seal or faulty torque converter can lead to contaminated fluid and potential transmission damage. Problems with the torque converter can result in damage, overheating, friction, and degradation of transmission fluid. If left unaddressed, these issues can cause further harm to the transmission. While automatic transmissions can consume horsepower, the torque converter has the potential to negatively affect performance when encountering road conditions.

    When I drove my car at lower speeds and up to 45mph, it was shaking, so I brought it to the dealership. They said I needed to replace the torque converter, which they quoted at $3,895—$895 for parts and the rest for labor. Instead of paying that, I got the parts myself and had a reliable mechanic do the job for a total of around $1200. Hope that information is useful to you.
