Hey guys,

I have a 2003 TC Executive. I recently (2-3 weeks ago) had her in the shop for an intake manifold replacement, the shop I went to told me that RF wheel bearing had a lot of play and that I should get that replaced sooner rather than later. This morning, I was heading to work on the highway, less than a mile from my house, going steady at approx. 60 MPH and I noticed some shuddering and hesitiation that didn't go away for about 5 seconds. I immediately pulled off the highway and went back and took the train instead today.

My question is do you think it's possible that this could be related to the bad wheel bearing or a different issue entirely?
 
That was a serious question btw, iirc the torque converter will do that when it's starting to go. Feels like running over rumble strips and it hesitates for a few seconds when it happens.
