      Another 6L80 FAILED!

      By CMoore711 · Posted

      I agree with @Karnut with only 70K miles I would push back on the dealer.   Owners manual says "normal" maintenance first transmission fluid service is at 97.5K miles.  "Severe" maintenance schedule first transmission fluid service is at 47.5K miles and 2nd one at 90K miles.   There may be an argument that based on normal use (no towing) at 70K miles you wouldn't have serviced the transmission yet.  So you can ask the dealer at only 70K miles what type of transmission maintenance record should exist?  No matter what their answer is tread lightly with a "non-confrontational approach".   "Well I was reviewing my owners manual in the Service and maintenance section and it states here on page 397 in the Maintenance Schedule for Normal use, which is what I follow since I don't tow or anything with it, and the first transmission fluid service doesn't need to occur until I'm at 97.5K miles?  So if I'm operating my vehicle normally based on the manufacturer's recommendation why would I have a transmission service prior to 97.5K miles?".  Then service guy may down the Sever Maintenance schedule rabbit hole and then I'd simply say "But I don't use my vehicle for any "severe duty" use;  I don't tow or haul anything it's simply a family kid hauler."   That being said a lot of this will be based on your relationship with the dealer and it will still be at their discretion.  Personally, I wouldn't count on much coming out of that conversation.   Being that your out of warranty I also wouldn't put the a GM remanufactured 6l80 transmission back in it either.  Find a good reputable transmission builder that knows the 6l80 specifically (they exist), have one built for you with upgraded clutch packs, stronger than normal/OE parts, no thermal bypass valve so it runs cooler, and a billet torque converter at stock stall speed and call it a day.  You'll still be in the $6,500 +/- range.  Then start changing the transmission fluid and filter every 45-50K miles.  It's a $500 service that will extend the life of your $6,500 transmission significantly.  And at the rate you drive with a 2019 with only 70K miles $500-$600 every 3-4 years for proactive maintenance is nothing.

      GM BEGINS PREPPING FOR NEXT GENERATION CHEVROLET SILVERADO AND GMC SIERRA

      By Epsilon Plus · Posted

      The people who want boutique things like single cab short bed HD with roll up windows and tiny mirrors likely don't end up buying it new anyway. Same for the "they should put an LT4 in a Blazer"!, then if GM ever spent the millions to do it, they wouldn't buy it. Dealers work in volume and stats. Most of the admin there don't even care about cars and are not car guys and don't even follow the industry. People that frequent this site and GM Authority are often FAR more informed than the typical sales manager. People assume since they work there they will have all the inside info and special access to GMs upcoming....etc. They don't care. It's all just metal to move to them. They know what sells based on history. Loaded up expensive trucks sell. Mid trim trucks (LTs) mid trim CUVs....etc sell. En masse. Boutique stripper trucks and expensive toys like Camaro V8s don't move the needle for them.
