I have the same 'washboard' transmission problem described in your post mog8. Where do i view bulletin 2073364 you mentioned in your post? Can you provide a link for that and the corvette forum you mentioned. My C6 is 2 mos old and I'm annoyed that it has a mechanical issue already. Thanks.

I get the same problem. I have a 2008 that is 5 months old w/1500 miles. I too thought it would correct itself, but it only seems to be getting worse. Yesterday it was raining and cold. Every thud and every catch up caused me to spin.......
I am having problems with my paddle shifter as well. from 1st to 2nd at 5000-6000 rpms the car will NOT shift without my foot coming off the gas. I get a 1 for first gear then X comes up.
 
The dealership I have taken the car to passes everything off stating the car checks out fine.....no codes. GM right now doesn't want to pay any money to fix this issue. I get the 'under normal driving conditions the car is functioning perfect'. Those aren't normal conditions.
 
Needless to say I'm hot about this. The dealer and GM doesn't seem to care. Does anyone have any suggestions?

93 zr1 by alan47

I have a 69 with a 350 4-speed. I found a 93 zr1 and I was wondering if it would bolt up to my existing m-21. I realize it will need the necessary conversion for the fuel injection (ie: electric fuel pump, wiring etc) but I just thought this would be such a cool conversion as opposed to rebuilding the original 350. Any comments on this would be appreciated. I do not believe the zr1 tranny was being sold ( I do not know if it is auto or standard)

Just curious whatever happened with your issue with the 2008 Corvette transmission. I recently bought a 2008 and am having similar problems. Just curious if yours was ever resolved and if you could provide me any additional information one way or another.

The problems I was having ( which I described when the car was new ) worked themselves out on their own. I've had the car about a year now and I don't experience the same problems. In my case it seems as if the transmission needed to get broken in so to speak.

I posted earlier about a 2005 corvette lemon ( auto trans failed ) that I bought new. After 3 years of driving a Mustang Cobra, I decided to give GM another chance. I bought a used 08 corvette with AT, Navi, F55, mag red, perf axle, dual mode. I really love this car and the auto transmission. I love the paddle shifters - they work well in my opinion. They are necessary to keep the RPM's high for spirited driving. The only thing I have noticed is there is a dead spot when going around corners at low speed. When the AT dowshifts from 3 to 2 it takes a little more time than it should. I hit the gas, the rpm's go up, and then the car lurches into 2nd gear. A little annoying but a small price to pay for the paddle shifters. Also, I would really recommend the F55 magnetic selective ride control too....

My C5 6-speed manual pops out of reverse by bhill2

unless you put pressure on the stick as you let the clutch out. That is, it doesn't completely engage with the shifter alone. As soon as the clutch is halfway out or so, it pops into gear and then it's fine. I took it to the dealer a couple of times and got the standard "we can't adjust it any better" and then learned to live with it. However, my wife, who drives the car less frequently than I do, just said that she thinks it's getting worse. Has anyone have a similar experience with this, and if so how did it turn out?
