  1. Hey there.. I purchased a brand new 2023 silverado last January. I noticed within 1 month there was something wrong with my truck. It started with hesitation in the engine, that eventually led to ticking in the engine, and my transmission had a shutter when going through the gears. When driving on the highway over 100, you could really feel the shutter in the truck. 8 months and 24,000km later, I was told the tourqe converter failed, the transmission fluid was extremely burnt, and the transmission had metal shavings in it. They replaced the tourqe converter and the transmission, all lifters were replaced and a cylinder head was replaced. I have had the truck back 1 week and it still runs like ******. The new transmission is doing the same thing, and I still have hesitation in the engine. The truck is returning to the dealership next week for a third time.
  2. I live in British Columbia, Canada. I purchased a 2023 Silverado with a 5.3 last January. Within a month I noticed that the rpm would fluctuate below 500 and go up to about 700, then drop again. Then, I started to notice a shutter when shifting through the gears, and at high speed on the highway. Then my engine started to developed a ticking noise. The truck has 24,000km on it. For months I have been trying to explain to the dealership what the truck has been doing. So, the truck went into the shop, the transmission was replaced, new lifters, they also replaced a cylinder head. I just got the truck back and not even 20min I noticed the rpm was still fluctuating. I would like to return the truck and get into something different but the dealership says they can't just swap the truck. I feel they could if they really wanted too! Has anyone else had problems with their 2023 Silverado 5.3 engine and transmission?
