hello just thought i'd drop a line to let ya know we put another transmission in our truck. We bought it as is & it lasted 2 weeks. so we had some bad luck. to cure our headache we went and bought a 2005 chevy silverado. Of course this does not help our 1998 GMC but at least we are mobile again. My advice is make sure, if you change the tranny (which u probaly will) you get a good tranny. We are know looking for another tranny. it is a 4L60E. Thanks for the inquiry.

03 GMC SIERRA 1-2 TRANNY SHIFT LURCH by bbbtrixie

When my truck is cold, I have a very hard shift into 2nd gear. Once it warms up, the hard shift is sporadic but mostly goes away. I can also feel a very slight grind just before it shifts into 2nd gear. The truck has 90000 kms.
 
ANY ADVICE?

That's usually a good indication you need a transmission service. New filter, band adjustment, screen cleaning, fresh fluid... should cure that shifting. With the pan dropped, anything else will be spotted.

My Silverado had a howl in 1st and 2nd gear and it felt like the transmission was slipping and I had trouble pulling my boat up a hills. I took it to the dealer and they said the transmission needed to be replaced. They replaced the transmission and I still have the howl in 1st and 2nd gear. I took it back to the shop before leaving the dealership. They told me there is nothing else I can do and that I would have to write a letter to GM or take it to another dealer. I have not tried to pull my boat yet. Has anyone else experiened this problem?

4L80 Transmission OD shift problem by maxwell10
Sep 18, 2007 (7:22 pm)

I have a 2000 model old style Chevy ¾ ton pickup. It has the 350 cu in engine and 4 speed auto transmission. I believe it is a 4L80.
 
From time to time my truck will shift out of OD going up a slight hill, but will not shift back into OD, when this happens, at each stop it will shift hard or jerk as it shifts from 1 to 2 to 3 gear.
 
Most times if you turn it off and it sets for a while it will work fine for a few weeks or month.
 
I have added one qt. of Lucas transmission oil and it did appear to help, but the problem comes back.
I was told to have an OBD2 live scan test run on truck, it came back no defects. Apparently this test does not test transmission.
Question:
What test do I need to have run on transmission?
What codes will tell me if the problem is electrical or sticky shift solenoid.
Thanks,
