hey 2000 f350, 7.3l auto, it came into the shop its not my personal vehicle i have a 99. but i know these are common for the torque converter going bad, this truck has about 187k miles on it and it did feel kinda sluggish 1-2k miles ago compared to mine with with 228k. No forward or reverse gears even move the truck, fluid is full and its got almost a whining noise, about from the converter area? Would this be the famous converter noise??

also no trans codes coming up after scanning. Talked to him and it happened out of the blue he heard the whining start and ended up having to push truck off side of the road.

What are you using to read the codes? I had/have a "check eng" light come on every so often. Several different code readers saw nothing. Someone with a real FORD code read & retrieved a low injector pressure code. If you're not using an FORD code reader you may want to try that. JMHO. Good luck
