I am new to the site and I would appreciate any info. I have a 2006 silverado with 65000 miles. Yesterday going down the road it felt like I ran over something and the trans started humming-pulled over to check out and had no reverse'tried to get it home and had no 2nd or overdrive, made loud noise trying to shift. took to shop and of course said rebuild. this is the 2nd chevy truck that trans went out with little mls. Is this been an ongoing issue with chevy trans? and does this sound familiar to anyone. thanks Replies to this message: obyone (May 23, 2008 11:04 am) fordfan_17 (May 23, 2008 12:57 pm)

Replying to: mllwd2000 (May 23, 2008 10:31 am) Since it's out of warranty take it to a transmission shop for a second opinion. The 4L-60E has been around for a long time. I had no issues with mine though that doesn't help you.

have a code scanner, no codes, still makes noise but still shifting ok, not getting any worse, guess I will have to take it to a trans shop and see what they say.

#309 of 503 ONSTAR by ralex May 27, 2008 (8:07 am)
I am new to this forum so I will apologize in advance if I have missed this is another area. I recently purchased a 2005 3500 Chevy Silverado and I haven't had any problem so far. I have thought about getting the OnStar subscription. I was hoping that someone could shed some light on how effective OnStar is when it come s to detecting problems using the "diagnostic check".
#310 of 503 AutoTranny Filter size by j_appleseed Jun 02, 2008 (10:51 am)
I have a 2000 GMC Sierra 1500, 4.8L w/ towing package and I changed my transmission fluid and filter yesterday. I bought the new filter at advance auto and there were two sizes, shallow and deep. I bought the shallow filter, but after removing the old one, it looks like a deep filter. I went ahead and installed the shallow filter. Anybody think I need to replace it with the deep filter? I tow a small 17 foot ski boat about twice a month. Replies to this message: fordfan_17 (Jun 03, 2008 8:41 am)

Replying to: j_appleseed (Jun 02, 2008 10:51 am) yes due to the fact if you get your truck a lil sideways the short filter may suck air for just a moment and cause what we call an air spike to the pump and blow the pump up in the trans ..yes put the right filter in it
