How is it possible for a company to sell a truck like this?  66K miles and now the transmission problems.  Quote from the dealer is $2900 to fix a trans shutter.  The compressor went out last year, back sliding window leaked before that.  I have owned 20+ Chevy trucks and suburbans and this is model is an absolute mess.  By searching the forum and web I see I am not the only one.  Does it help to post with the NTSB or whoever manages recalls of poor quality?

I had same issue and then got a transmission flush at the dealership. Took care of the shutter. My truck also fluctuated RPMs at 50-80mph range, where the speed wouldn't change but RPMS changed. Was thinking my torque convertor was going bad. Just needed new trans oil is all. best of luck. FYI - I paid around 300 for that. I realized the stealership tacked in an extra "diagnostic" fee since I stated it was shuttering. Just a heads-up, if you know exactly what service you're requesting at a dealership they should be able to give you the exact pricing beforehand. So expect to pay under $300 for this trans oil change. Manual says it needs to be done every 60k IIRC.

I also have a '19 that had that problem. Jus bought the truck with under 40k. Had it flushed with updated fluid and its runnin normal now. Cost me about 340 to have it flushed. Would definitely recommend trying that! They told me if that doesnt fix it the converter needs replaced!

I was not sure about being able to flush and or drain and refill on a 2020 with the 10 speed was your the 10 or 6 speed?

Initial charge for me was going to be triple flush, reprogram transmission control module, and reprogram ECU for about $1300. Luckily warranty covered everything except the reprogramming which I pretty much had that covered too with my GM rewards for installation of rebuilt GM transmission for my wife's 2016 yukon slt. That's another story.

Have a 2019 rst with the 5.3 and 8 speed. Check engine light came on, took it to dealer, they did the trans flush and temp sensor. Went to pick it up, started it to leave the dealer light was back on. Now have valves stuck open in the trans and needs a new valve body. Parts on back order and no idk when they will be available. All under warranty still but frustrating that I can’t get parts or even be told when they’ll be available.

    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
