    If you didn't get them all set in the first time and forced the transmission on with the bellhousing bolts then the torque converter is probably already broken. I think you are probably just low on fluid still.

        I might be low on fluid, but the dipstick reads right in the middle when cold.

        I have the torque converter on correctly I think, the holes for the flex plate lined up perfectly with what seemed like the right gap

          Don't "think" you have something on correctly. Either "know" or "believe" otherwise you might as well just state best guessed.

            People "think" because they don't "know". If you "think" you can fix something, you might want to wait until you "know" you can.

            Try this exercise: Whenever anyone says "they think....." just ignore everything they say after that. You'll suddenly find that you get better advice.

                So I went out and let the car warm up, even let it idle in drive for roughly 3 minutes to heat the fluid up. It still sits at roughly the right level on the dipstick

                Also found out my windows no longer nor does my blower motor. The windows dont work at all, and the breaker switch does nothing. Ugh fuses are all good too

                  That's so strange. I know a guy who had a similar issue. Not sure if he got it working again.

                    I need to see if the mirrors adjust, then I know whether or not it is the relay.

                    The fuse looked good, but hey it could be bad

                    Anybody have the 5 speed parts sitting around.. there is a guy on CL with all of it for $450

                              Bratwurst. Better yet, bratwurst at the e30 picnic. I've never been.
