Hello all! First post here! What brought me here was the 8l90 torque converter lockup shudder issue. Most times I'd just take this truck to the dealer and let them sort it out, but as it's out of warranty, this is not something I'd like to pay >$600 to repair (this price was quoted to me for the flush and filter change). After talking to a few service advisors I've found that each of them planned on using a different solution to attempt to alleviate the shudder. The first was going to proceed via one of the bulletins and do a triple fluid swap and filter change, the others were just going to do a standard flush and fluid swap. I plan on owning this vehicle for another few months until the 19's become a little more negotiable but cannot stand to let this shudder go on that long and am a bit worried about destroying the torque converter in the process and washing a whole bunch of parts down into the transmission. So.... my question is if anyone has performed this fluid swap themselves, if it alleviated the issue, and if the filter change is necessary? I saw that many of the Corvette guys were swapping to the Mobil 1 fluid with some success, however, I didn't think this was as much of a fluid performance issue as it was a suspended clutch material / dirty fluid issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!! -
I have a 2014 Silverado 6.2. Max Trailer package. I recently took it in for scheduled recall. It has about 10,500 miles. I could tell they did something with the TC, grade braking and also the adjustable pedal settings. My truck started to act strange with idle fluttering and it feels like the TC is jumping in and out, like it's trying to decide whether to lock or unlock. It does this at speeds below 50 MPH. I am wondering if anyone else has had this issue and how they were able to fix it? I talked to another owner that had this issue and he took it in multiple times to have the dealer find nothing... He finally tuned it; modifying the TC adapt settings. I am very hesitant to void my warranty considering the issues with new new style.
