Question
Butter2
The 6L80E transmission in my 2013 Silverado 1500 recently overheated and started slipping. While rebuilding the transmission I found the plastic alignment plate had melted in the oil pump. I replaced all the clutches and seals, the oil pump, bell housing and reinstalled the transmission back in the pickup. When I took the pickup out for a test drive it would shift 1st and reverse normally but when I would accelerate to where it should shift into 2nd it acts like it's slipping and then all of a sudden grabs and almost stops the vehicle and goes back in the first gear. I believe it's locking into limp mode. I hauled the pick up to the dealer and have them reprogram the transmission but that did not fix the problem. It's not throwing any codes so I'm not sure where to look next. I'm wondering if the TCC/shift control solenoid got too hot and is no longer shifting.
UPDATE: I haven't done anything new to the transmission other than let it sit while I discussed different options, but when I went to move the pickup it drove forward 50 ft and locked up. I can back up but it will not drive forward. The only thing different is the outside temperature has cooled off since I test drove it 2 weeks ago.
