4l70e Failures


Recommended Posts

Posted

Has anybody had any problems with their 4L70E? My 4L70 lost second gear, taking it to the dealer to get the transmission fixed. When my warranty runs out, I'm thinking about ordering up a Level 5 4L70e from FLT. All the manual gears work good, and reverse and park work normal. Warranty will cover my transmission, but when warranty goes I'm saving up to get a built 4L70e. So, how is everybody else 4L70?

No issues with mine (25,000 miles) I've never had any issues with any of my 700R4/4L60-E trannys.

How many miles on yours?

39,000 on mine and not a lick of trouble so far.

 

I also had Justin remove 100% of TM in regular mode. In addition I tow on a regular basis too. But, Justin left all of the TM in T/H mode.

My transmission has 70,000 miles on it, it was working perfectly until the other day. I like how Chevy stands behind their product and I am getting my transmission fixed at the dealership already.

I use it for work and going out so the miles go up quick.

38,800 miles and no issues... and I tow too. :cool: Glad to hear the dealership is fixing you up.

 

 

Yeah, very happy with the way the Chevrolet dealership is helping me fix my truck. Never had a big warranty claim like this one, on my other trucks it was always smaller things than this. Very satisfied with the way GM stands behind their products.

So they are fixing your transmission even though you have a Black Bear Performance Tune??? Interesting, I'm assuming you've swapped out pcms or they aren't too bright and haven't compared calibration numbers with the Tech II. Way to go with getting away with that one :cool:

    • I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal. 
    • Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?
    • I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps. 
    • Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
