2008 Trans problem by rolinski

I have a 2008 coupe with 1300 miles. I took it to the dealer for a shift problem, it was stuck in in maybe 3rd and the engine light came on. The dealer fixed the problem with a pressure control solinoid. The problem I now have is when I put it in drive, there is a hesitation up to 5 seconds before it ingages. I took it back to the dealer again and they said that this is a normal condition. This doesn't seem normal to me. I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem?

So how long was the break-in period? How many miles did it take? I don't plan on driving mine more than 3-4k per year but I want to get this transmission issue worked out ASAP before any warranty expires. But I believe the warranty for the drive train is 5-year or 100k (someone please let me know if that is not the case for a 2008).

Thanks for the reply. To what are you referring when you say "that's not normal"? Do you mean the break-in period or the warranty or something else?

I wasn't replying to you. Replying to rolinski. About his problem with a 5 second delay after shifting into gear before the car will move - that's not normal.

I have a 2005 corvette and started having the noise from the back trans axle at only 20,000 miles. The dealer told me, it is a defective propeller shaft in the middle of transmission and must be replaced. But my warranty is expired, and must pay $2500 to fix it!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is my 3rd Corvette, and my C5 corvette until 120,000 miles was flawless. But my C6 is very disappointing. Shame on GM and its limited 3 years warranty on 2005 corvette!!!!!!!!!

Most cars have a 35 month, 36,000 mile warranty.
 
In mid-2006 GM went to 100,000 mile 'driveline' warranty for most of their cars.
 
I'm old enough to have bought several new cars with a 12 month, 12,000 mile warranty. The last one was a 1991 SHO, which is only 18 years ago.
