My 2021 5.3, 8 speed does this for about two days, every 500 miles. I had my dealer witness it last week and they made an appointment to diagnose the problem. I spent 4 hours waiting and they came back and said they could not tell me what the issue is. They said the will discuss this with GM and to come back for a second appointment. I have owned only GM products since buying my first car, a  Chevrolet, in 1964. GM started selling Hydramatic transmissions in 1939, in the Oldsmobile. The 8L90 transmission is in the 7th year of production. There is no excuse for this!  Despite being a Chevrolet judge, and a long time member of the Vintage Chevrolet Club of America, if they don't repair or replace this transmission, I will never purchase another GM product again. I think that perhaps next time, if this issue is not resolved, I will try a Chrysler Ram.  I hope that the GM executives read this because, if they don't support their long time customers, they will loose many more to Ford, Ram and sadly foreign companies like Toyota.

Thanks and keep me posted on your issue and resolution. They have been having these problems with the transmissions in the Corvettes as well for the last few years and have not corrected the problem.

I spent another half day at the dealer with my 2021 Silverado. The service writer and the technician have both driven the truck and acknowledge the issue,  but say they don't know how to fix it. GM refuses to replace the transmission, or even admit that 2020 and 2021 have any issues.  This would not have happened at the old GM I grew up with.

      We have now!  2027 GMC Sierra  Early look, but I'm a GMC guy and so far I think I like the looks of the Chevy better.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
