Chevy Impala transmission issues

While stopped at a light, I pulled off with no problems, went approximately 15 feet and the engine began to revs as if I was in neutral. I coasted over to the right lane to analyze the problem. While in drive the car would not go any where! It would idle very high as if it's in neutral. It's doing the same thing in all the gears. WHATS' WRONG?

Hey, My 2006 LTZ transmission is slipping also. especially when the engine is cold, and taking off from a stop. I bought it certified and I have 84,000, but the transmission is covered to 100,000 miles. I brought it in once to the dealer, but they could not duplicate. Any hope in getting this fixed by the dealer? Do I keep bringing it in to document?

I have the same problem with my 2007 Impala SS. From a rolling start, if you accelerate quickly, the trans will slip briefly & then "clunk" as it catches. Any luck finding out what the problem is?

After a lot of effort and persistence with the dealer I was able to demostrate that the transmission had a problem. I was right at the end of my Warranty, so I wasn't taking no as an answer. They pulled the transmission and found several issues, including a foreign body, metal shavings, and heat stress on the clutches. My '06 Implala only had 26,000 miles on it and the transmission was falling apart. They put in a new transmission, so they say, but I am now still having the same problems as before, such as the tranny slipping when shifting from Rev to Drive, and now pereodically from Drive to Rev. I am very methodical when shifting the gears to make sure I'm not still moving or doing anything to provoke the problem and it will slip regardless. The car is going back to the dealer next week and I won't take no for an answer. If you know there is a problem and you can prove it, then you have to be persistent or you'll get the run around, especially if the car is under warranty.
