2004 K1500 sierra, 4 speed auto,4.8 lit. Whats the best/accepted way to service the tranny? i hear different opinions. My owners manual just says "service the transmission". I don't know what that means.

Replying to: speedboy1 (Feb 23, 2009 5:35 pm) I had a '98 K1500 that felt like a "fifth" gear when the torque converter lockup occurred. No idea if yours behaves the same. Also, when lifting your foot off the gas pedal, it coasted for about five seconds before starting a deceleration action. It was OK once I got used to it.

Replying to: gnusarev (Aug 12, 2008 12:23 pm) My '02 Sierra 2500HD has the same shifting problem. When I attempt to "kick it in the butt" at speed hoping it would drop into a passing gear, the truck acts like it wants to, but then just "dogs down" unless I back off the accelerator. Had this happen before and the deal told me it was the oil filter...yes, oil filter. The previous oil change had a Wix filter installed. Evidently that has an affect on back pressure, typically 4-6 lbs., but was causing 8 -10 lbs. Filter was replaced by Genuine GM parts and the truck ran like a top. Again, about a year later, same thing. Wix filter was installed again, and again same problem. However, when I replaced the Wix with a GM/Delco filter, the problem didn't get solved. Does anyone out the have any other suggestions?
#416 of 506 2000 Silverado 2500 hard shifting by killerbee2 Mar 10, 2009 (2:46 pm)
I recently noticed my transmission shifting hard at times. It normally shifts really smooth,but occasioinally hard. I noticed it more often now that the weather is warmer. the tempeature guage for the transmission runs around 150 degrees. I don't know if the fluid and filter has ever been changed. I bought the truck used and was wondering if it was okay to change them with the mileage at159000.

Replying to: obyone (Dec 20, 2008 10:15 pm) I'm having the same problem on my 01 Silverado with a 5.3. I didn't see that the originator ever responded. Please help? Replies to this message: bumperdude (Mar 15, 2009 8:35 am)

Replying to: 2001silverado (Mar 15, 2009 7:44 am) i have 5 silverados in my fleet (2000-2008). as soon as they show any sign of something going on w/the tranny i have them serviced by a shop with a good history. no crooks. they can look at what comes out of the tranny and tell if i'm in for a bad day or just a flush. good luck.

#420 of 506 Transmission help 2002 Silverado 2500-HD by whorl16 Mar 15, 2009 (4:42 pm)
I have a 2002 Silverado 2500-HD 6.0 liter gas with 104,000 miles on it. The transmission shifts very smooth while accelerating, but during deceleration or braking, the vehicle starts shuttering and acts as if doesn’t want to down shift. Has anyone experienced this problem or have any ideas. Thanks.
