#528 of 534 06 Avalanche transmission by countrylvr Aug 28, 2006 (11:36 am)
Within a month after purchasing my new avalance, I had to take it in because the #1-4 gears in my transmission were burnt out, they repaired the problem or so I thought. I took it back within a week because it was slipping, they couldn't find anything. At the same time I told them that on my steering wheel and on the dash my stereo buttons were very hot. Couldn't find a thing. Again! Well I was going up the I-15 towards Victorville, CA and I was in stop and go traffic more stop, so when the vehicle ahead of me went and I had room to actually push on the accelerator in drive it didn't want to go so I put it in 3rd gear and it went. The next day went to the dealer they said to bring it back any day around 1 pm so the tech, the service writer and myself could go for a drive. He actually told me to come back when I know the trans will do the same thing again, How am I supposed to know when it will do it again? It happens alot but not everytime. HAS ANY ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM? Replies to this message: madpopper (Sep 12, 2006 11:39 am) countrylvr (Oct 06, 2006 9:57 pm)

Replying to: countrylvr (Aug 28, 2006 11:36 am) Is yours a 4WD? I had some slipping problems w/ mine as well. The dealer had to change the control box on the front differential. My steering buttons get hot after long periods of driving especially at night. I think it is due to the lights on the buttons, but that doesn't make it any more comfortable.

Replying to: madpopper (Aug 17, 2006 12:53 pm) Same on my 03 with 70,000 miles. Did the steering shaft grease thing. Didn't help. Finally stopped being lazy and started checking the front end with a pry bar (up on jack stands of course). Bad upper ball joint. Idler arm was a little loose too. Got to love that Chinese Steel. Thanks GM.

Replying to: soccertaxi (Aug 01, 2006 10:03 am) I own a 2002 and have the same problem with the Avalanche just quitting. I have had it in the shop twice right after it happens and the computer does not register anything wrong. Have you had a fix? Replies to this message: countrylvr (Oct 06, 2006 9:52 pm)

Replying to: madpopper (Sep 12, 2006 11:39 am) No, its not a 4x4, just a bad trans. Then they had to reset the computer, replace the rear radio, and now they are trying to figure out what the vibration noise is underneath. I only have 5600 miles on it.

As you may have noticed, we are reorganizing the Forums to allow better focus and easier searching when you have a particular problem or comment about any given vehicle. Many of the large generic discussions (like this one) will be closed to new posts, and we ask that you continue in the more focused discussions that you can find at the Group page for the vehicle, linked below. This discussion will not be deleted, so you can still search for information in it.   We recognize this is going to take some getting used to (for the hosts too!), so please bear with us. If you have any questions, you can always email the host of any discussion - the link is at the top of each page to the host who oversees that discussion.   If you don't see a discussion in the group appropriate to your question or comment, start a new one, or send me an email, and I'll point you in the right direction!   Thanks! kcram - Pickups Host   Chevrolet Avalanche Group
