    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Not sure what irritates you, I never said my shutter stopped at any time as a result of a flush or some other troubleshooting method. But yes TRANNY WORKS GREAT!!! I'm back on the road. Works flawlessly. I'm happy!

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Hi, well after long analysis and thought process out the yin yang I decided that I could spend the $120-$200 on a flush and drive it and see if it fixed it. I could get a company to install a new valve body I supplied or install a shift kit I supplied or a corvette servo and hope for the best...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Awesome, thanks everyone! My first attempt will be to try the lube guard shudder fix (red) tube. A tranny builder specialist told me the following via an email discussion:(no test drive) The Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) is “shuddering” causing the entire “driveline&#8221...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Couldn't agree more, thanks everyone. If it wasn't for the stupid grinding noise I would just get a good shop to do the full flush and install corvette servo and ebay kit and be there for when the shop does the work. If I do that route and it fixes shutter but still grinds obviously it's...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Hi guys just an update, I haven't had a chance to take it to shops yet . Hoping to do this soon. I'd like to find the ebay link that has the 3 kits in it locally and bring it to them so I don't have to import them from usa. can't see why I need too to that...a kit is a kit.

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Hi, Fyi : 128,000 km = 79,536 Miles I try and put myself in another person's shoes so I understand where they come from. Perhaps if I take it from the tranny place's perspective. I hear a grind, I see a slip in an out (200rpm drop) so I know something is wrong so do I tell the guy he...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Thanks everyone. I've learned that the PWM Valve plays a huge role in what's happening here - shudder. Either one could buy this part and get a shop to install this : http://www.transmissionpartsusa.com/77754_04K_4L60E_transmission_TCC_valve_p/400-07775404k.htm Which essentially puts the...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Thank you very much for your reply! Well I certainly get a horrible grinding metal on metal type noise(1 second)when it's up in the 70km/hr every now and then and the shudder of course up in the 80-90km. In your experience has a full fluid exchange with new oe filter every fixed a grinding...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Does anyone have any picture examples of too many metal pieces in bottom of pan? Is 128K too risky for fluid exchange and all new OE fluid installed? I know I'm suppose to look for varnish in pan.

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    Wow, thanks I really appreciate getting back to me on this!!! I did mean to ask what problem did you experience and after installing the kit did it fix it right off that bat? Also did you do a full fluid change at same time. I notice your tranny was at 180kish at the time? I notice it says...

    4L60E transmission slipping during lockup

    I can't pm sparky until I have 25 + posts as I wanted to ask him how much labour/labor he paid to have the kit installed. Anyone know? I notice these kits can be installed without removing the tranny from truck! YES! I called the ebay company selling the kit and he said just make sure the...
