I'm at 230 000 km on my 2015.  It's clunky (especially when I put it in reverse) but still doing the job.

Had the same thing and this might sound wierd but ive been pressing the brake way harder than normal then changing into reverse and have not have it happen since… i thought something was seriously messed with it but more brake pressure seemed to work

I'm at 260 now and its still going!  I'll try the brake trick, but it clunks whenever it hits the lower gears.  Higher, not so much.

What is the part number for the new temp sensor on the 8l90s

Up date nearnig 400,000 miles just started to occasionally  to cunk shifting between 1st and second  gear. Last service they wanted to replace  temp sender. Passed on that will run it tell it breaks

I have 72,000 on my 2018 , trans is getting rebuilt as we speak ($5500) thanks GM for the warning. Would have changed the fluid to Mobil 1 if you had warned me. 3 GMCs  in my driveway 4th will most likely be a Ford

My 2017 8L90 6.2 Z71 just passed 132k. I did have a few hiway speed jolts prior to downshifts about 500 miles ago. Into the dealer now for diagnostic. Only 15k miles since fluid and filter change.

130k on my 2015 8L90.

fluid and filter changes every 45k.  New temp sensor/harness at 100k.

Now at 151k.  Plan to do a fluid suck and fill (no filter) in spring.   Have changed fluid at 45k, 89k, 100k (temp sensor) and 130k.  At the 130k (30k on fluid), magnets were clean and fluid was nice and red, thus just going to do a quick 5-6qt refresh in a few months…

 

I did install the Sure Cool STL010 at 130k, so that should help the fluid’s longevity a bit…wish I had put the thermostat on long ago..

Data point: 145K on our Yukons. Had the fluid changed at 90K for its poor shifting manners, with little change.

 

It still works, but it is by far the worst GM transmission I've ever experienced. Out of... dozens with all over 100K and many over 200K. Only one rebuild in the mix.

 

I wish this one would fail so that it could be rebuilt, if I were convinced changing mechanical parts would alter its behavior and shift quality.
