3 week old 2020 At 4.  1100 miles and transmission problems already.  Returned to Ritchey Gmc today for service.  My 2018 gmc had trans problems.   Anyone having same problems?

No issues with mine. Only at 225 miles though. Not getting out of 3rd gear is a major problem though.

Well, it happens. Still can count all of the 10 speed complaints here on one hand. Mine’s been flawless.

I know that GM and Ford developed the 10 speed trans for these trucks and I don't know the similarities between brands and models. We leased a brand new Explorer late last year. It has less than 5K on it and it has been at the dealership for 3 weeks as of yesterday with the transmission ripped out of it and they are waiting on parts to put it back together. The new Explorers are RWD platforms unlike the previous generation and I assume they use the same 10 speed as an F-150 which can't be too dissimilar to GM's version. Ours developed a violent downshift after being above 45 mph, like turning into our subdivision from a 4 lane highway. It would also have random funky up shifts as well. I haven't talked to the mechanic yet to find out what happened. The service advisor hasn't a clue. I hope you get yours sorted out.

Co-developed, yes. But the GM and Ford transmissions are each built in their own individual plants with entirely different programming and controls. What happens in a Ford Exploder means nothing for what happens in a GM pickup.

 

I am as shocked as anyone that GM got the 10 speed so right and Ford still has it so wrong, but it’s 100% true.

I am totally in agreement with this statement. I had a 15 Sierra 6.2 8M, that had some warranty fixed transmission problems, which made it OK and still that way at 50k miles.

I traded it in on a 2020 Sierra 6.2 10M and am blown away with how great this transmission is so far. Nice smooth shifts up and down when cruising around town -but it has fast crisp shifts when you get out on the highway and get into it!

This is my first 10 speed on a GM, I do have experience with the 10 speed on an F150 and it's a very good trans. Buddies are running 600hp Raptors with the 10 speed and 4x4 launches and not one issue.

I've searched around and I can't find any problems with them either. Ours must have come down the line on a Friday at quitting time.

I have a 19 AT4 6.2 - 10 spd - 8,500 miles - not a single issue - in fact the tranny is one of the best overall things about this truck - it shifts smooth and has been absolutly seemless!

 

Hope they find a fix for you and you get back to enjoying your truck!

The new 10 speeds are junk. Stick with tried and true 8 speed.

My 8 speed drove like garbage compared to this 10 speed. Coupled with the ridiculous throttle lag, I did not enjoy my ‘18 Silverado.

    • Hey thanks yall for the info. It apparently was the key fob - the "reserve" key fob works just fine. Yall were all over it. Great input! JRD
    • I just bought one of these.   https://www.topdon.us/collections/diagnostic-tools/products/artidiag-pro   Yeah, it`s got a cable. $250/year after 2 years. Do I want more? Yep. But, I`m not working any more and can`t afford a whirlpool in my tool box.
    • Why don't I have a good scanner? I've always wanted one when I've needed one.   My latest reading says I don't need to do a relearn on the ckp sensor on a 1995 with OBD 1.5. The relearn is prescribed for the later-model 1995's which shipped with actual OBD II when GM completed the transition in prep for the 1996 MY. I need to confirm that. Did you know forums are disappearing? Knuckleheads on Facebook... it's not the same. It's just not.   So, scanners. Again, shooting myself in the foot for having eBayed my Snap On MT2500 "brick" with all the adapters. Not that I couldn't buy another but those are getting quite old, and mine wasn't new enough to work on 2000's vehicles.   Damn it (as I'm scanning my email between paragraphs here). Did you know there's a 2000 Jimmy 2-door on BaT that's ending this morning? It's local. I want it. 14k miles. Absolutely beautiful.   Back to scanners. MT2500's are old. Solus, now that could be a contender. There's a ~2008 Verus with a system error that's basically new in box for cheap. Hmm...I'm not sure about a scanner that runs an archaic version of windows (95 or CE, I can't tell).   I want the ability to reset and rotate TPMS, test individual modules, bleed ABS, electronic parking brake controls for servicing brakes, relearn procedures and other bidirectional controls.   Snap On does an MT2600. It's a new model as of last year, marketed as their "entry" scanner. Entry? Only where $1900 gets you through the doorway plus, I'm guessing, $1000/year if you wish to keep it current. So goes scan tools actually designed for production environments. Want decent products with excellent support, you pay for it.   Everyone is raving about Autels and TopDons and Foxconns and all these newer brands that are selling the $500 "prosumer" scanners for backyard hacks like me. They're tempting...honestly. Updates are cheaper, base prices are remarkably cheaper... And you get to deal with bugs and translation whoopsies and, well, just don't use it on anything expensive, OK? Having a dealer replace an ECU because it needs to be re-imaged after an adventure in scanning is no joke. But I think most people are getting by OK with these units.   eBay on a scratch-and-sniff pro-model oldie, a shiny new TopDon, or???   God dang it, I can't stop looking at this Jimmy. I'm ready! I'll Bring The TRailer! It's beautiful.
    • I removed the OE running boards.  It looked so much better.  I wish I took them off a long time ago.     I had to put something back on for my wife.  I wanted Westin Sure Grip Running Boards but they are very pricey, like $600 plus.  I was going to go with the Ionic 41's like I had on the 2019 Silverado but went with Westin Outlaw Drop Steps instead, about $200 cheaper.  They are sturdy and functional but not super crazy about the look, but it works.
