1999 GMC SIERRA 1500
  
    Problem: Truck is not shifting into reverse, and makes and winding noise in reverse. When driving, shifting from 1st to 2nd I have to let off the gas to make it shift. Other gears will shift on their own but with a slight delay. Thanks

2003 Silverado Z-71 Problem by blaroche

Hello,
I have recently been noticing a possible problem with my 2003 Silverado (automatic transmission/4 wheel drive system) Z-71. The problem is kind of weird in that the transmission seems to be working harder then normal under normal operating conditions. The truck only has 40,000 miles on it and has really only been used on the highway. It almost seems that the truck isn't driving as smoothly as it once did. Almost as if the front end is ready to lock into 4 wheel drive when only 2 wheel drive is selected. I also had one instance where the transmission seemed to slip back into neutral. I even had a passenger ask if I was dragging something the other day. I have noticed some slight changes in the handling characteristics of this vehicle but nothing that I thought was serious. Has anyone experienced anything like this?
 
Thanks for any assistence.

Automatic Transmission!!!!!!!! by tjustice

Hello,
  I have a 1996 Chevy Silverado pickup truck. It has a automatic overdrive transmission. I recently had the transmission filter replaced and put about 5 quarts of dexron 3 automatic transmission fluid in it. So I thought that it would shift right but I was wrong. It shifts into first at about 10 mph but when it goes to shift into second (which is suppose to shift at about 30 mph.) it doesn't shift i even had it up to 35-40 mph I would appreciate any advice that anyone can give to me.

I am having the same problem with my 2001 Sierra. Did you figure out what the problem was?

Auto Transmission clunk by jsross44

I have a 2005 silverado ext cab Z71 that makes a clunk noise when shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear under a light throttle condition. It dosen't seem to do it when i'm heavy on the throttle. I was told by chevrolet it is caused by a tall second gear and is normal and will not do any harm to the tranny. Has anyone else out there had this problem with their silverado's transmission and had it fixed. Outside of this annoying clunk the tranny shifts fast and tight.

Hey. I have a 1999 silverado 1500 and does the exact same thing. Right now I just have it parked and don't use it. Did you get it fixed? what is wrong with it?

It appears to be the common problem of sun gear failure. From what I read on the net, the only thing to do is rebuild the tranny or get a new one. The GM dealership here said it would likely be $1000 just to diagnose the problem, as they would likely have to tear down the transmission. Mine is parked for now. I'm getting a salvage transmission with low km's on it and selling the truck before it happens again.
