C8 Transmission Issues UPDATE
In my last video I talked about some mysterious transmission shuddering that has randomly popped up about 20,000 miles into owning my 2021 C8. I broke her in until 1500 miles as instructed, and did all fluid changes early and often. Yet still, no amount of preventative maintenance is a match for the enigmatic C8 transmission problems that seem to be cropping up in forums everywhere...here's the latest update to what is becoming an ongoing saga of diagnosis.

C8 TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS???
มุมมอง 18Kปีที่แล้ว
Total transmission failure. Every C8 owner's worst nightmare, right? What a way to start the new year. The dreaded shudder is back in the FoxC8 at just 30,000 miles after a meticulous maintenance schedule and I'm not thrilled about it. I'm just crossing every finger hoping it doesn't escalate to total failure. I'll keep you guys updated about the latest on this issue. With any luck it's a simpl...
Supercar Saturday South Florida - CRAZIEST CAR MEET IN SOFL??
มุมมอง 1.8Kปีที่แล้ว
Today I'm taking you on a tour of one of my favorite South Florida car events, Supercar Saturday. This is one of the largest and most diverse meets in all of South Florida, and it's hard to believe an event of this magnitude manages to happen every second Saturday of the month from 9am-noon, rain or shine. Heavyweight exotics like Lamborghini, Bugatti, and Keonigsegg have a hand in putting thin...

The @SigalaDesigns Z07 style wing is truly a beast in action. This mod definitely turns heads and is a huge level up for the C8 stingray.

What do you think about Sigala's Z07 style wing offering? What do you want to see in the next video? Let me ...

The floating 2 post design is quite a feat of engineering, but they definitely pulled it off and are th...

I feel like that it only happens for a day and goes back to normal means that it just an electrical problem or software stuff
Even if your trans wasn’t having problems you shouldn’t be racing a Lambo. You don’t have a lambo you have I nicer fiero. And it isn’t funny when you pronounce it wrong. Also the trans problems were mainly in the 20-22s seems to be a lot better now. Sucks it happened to you
More is less!😊
My '21 3 LT was in for a trans service, dealer found a mild leak, case has porosity and they are swapping my trans. 11000 km. I think I better buy extended warranty, 3500 cdn.
What side skirts did you use. Beautiful car
Bro, is it louder than a factory Zo6?
My 2023 C8 motor was replaced at 35k. Now my transmission is failing at 60k
My DCT filter was at 3%@7500mile service😂, dealership wanted $800 to change it before 2nd service, JUST THE FILTER no fluid
SMH. Damn Shame
I just bought a 22 C8 and my first day of ownership got a CEL stating high fluid pressure in the transmission. Dealer said it was a valve body and GM is going to replace it. Now I'm worried what the lead time is on that trans...
How do you open the clip?
My 24 has shudder now and then
Is the shudder sound transmission related and when does it happen
@@HectorGarcia-sg3nq When I am driving slow in the city and when I get off the interstate after driving it hard
Mine had that after awhile it went away around 2200 miles its been good now. I had a service trans light at one point when it was doing that they said i needed a new trans but after checking it they said it was low one quart of trans fluid. Get your dct filter changed if you haven't it's free on your first time. I think that's very important cause those trans are delicate and if it has dirt or what it can cause problems. Mine so far is great not shuttering coming to stops, just smooth and good.
Car was not tested well
Dealers think it’s nothing to inconvenience customers
Looks so good in black.
okay the cracks and pops with the bov is just amazing i can’t wait i just got one for my e63s
You idle your car up to 150 oil temp every time?!
Need to lower it. Shits dope as hell
So many cuts. Ouch!
Question is has anyone NOT had issues with the c8 transmission. I’m selling mine. I feel it’s a matter of when. I think every one will fail within 40-50 thousand miles. I’m dumping this pos. Gonna look into a nice Acura or maybe a challenger.
Damn
Good job Silver Fox, doing this to my C8 this week. Thank you.
Had my 2020 C8 transmission replaced twice. Less than 20,000 Mile's on it. Just picked up a 2024 Z06 on Tuesday and with 169 miles on it, I got a transmission hot, pull over message. Long story short, I need a new transmission. What is going on GM??
Wow u got the z06 and it wasn’t right either ? I’d be beside myself 😬
Why is video keep skipping.
My 23 has been perfect for the first year and just as a precaution on the first service I had them change the DCT filter. What harm could be done? Got in the car after the service and it's not been the same. Intermittently, the car just won't move in 1st gear, press on brake and press throttle and it moves. This all started after they changed the filter. They checked the fluids, there is no CEL, they said it's fine. Fortunately, there are 2 more years of warranty remaining.
Where did you get the steering wheel control
Hey Silver, great video on the Paragon Vortex Generator! I am about to order one for my black C8. Now that you have had it on for a while, do you have any additional comments to share? Did the 3M tape keep it in place in the hot Florida sun? Is there any discoloration over time? Any additional mounting tips? Thanks! Bill
I’ve had stuttering/shuddering issues for almost two years since it was new. It’s been in the shop 5-6 times. A different story every time and of course no problems when service took it for drives. Dealer said I needed fresh transmission fluid which of course wasn’t under warranty!
Will this install void my warranty?
Thank you, would you demonstrate the touring exhaust?
One thing to know: engineers design the internals of any car but the people working in the factories assembling the car sometimes are not the smartest or even the most caring. They're just there to get a paycheck, clock-out, and go home.
I like Chevy products too but I have to hold them accountable all togther..there's no way a car of this caliber should be suffering from transmission problems so early..class action suite for sure 😢
Did you sell the car? This appears to be your last video from a year ago
Had problems with mine. In the shop for six weeks. They fixed it but finally got rid of it.
What did they fix? Thanks.
I wish you would have shown the view of the rear view camera!
Ah Yes The Classic "Track Use" Exhaust Lol
Factory sounds better in my opinion. This mods makes it fast & furious a like...
Took my 2024 c8 in for a oil change two days ago first one @ 1,000 miles , they told me my transmission is leaking and want me to bring it in tomorrow 😮 hoping it’s not to serious
I have the Paragon Touring and I love it. Such a sweet sound - similar to the Z06. Also sold my coupe and bought an HTC. Will never go back to a coupe again.
My transmission spindle sensor? died at 19k on my 22. Waiting on new transmission
These spacers are prone to leak, they help prevent compressor surge but also reduce spool from factory setup. The best route to take is using PTG race valves.. you don't get the sound, but the boost leak is eliminated and the air is recirculated into your intake to keep your turbo spooled.
My 2022 Z51 is currently at the Dealership. 4400 miles and lost Reverse and all even gears. Check Engine light is on. Shifts 1,3,5,7. This happens in Auto and Manual both. I will update when repairs are complete.
Any update?
Is everything stock on your C8 ? I've seen other have the same exhaust and it dose not pop and burbles the same a yours ? Thanks
Dose Paragon touring exhaust BURBLES & POPS like track exhaust ? Thanks
Stock sounds better. GM nailed it on their factory exhaust system.
Stock sounds SOOOOO much worse. Your statement is ridiculous!
HTC is the way to go! Been waiting on mine but on hold waiting for more Z07 options to be available.
I used your code to purchase paragon track exhaust and an air filter. Your welcome :)
Drive your C8 in manual mode. The problem is the AFM active fuel mgmt software. It will not show as a fault. AFM will wreak havoc on your Trans. Driving it in manual mode will disable the AFM software and will resolve the issue. GM head engineer for C8 design covered this issue a while back.
10/10 vid! I have a question though. Did installing the blow off valve cause any more or less turbo lag? Or did it feel overall the same?
Who installed it ?
These cars were rushed to market and it shows…so many issues out there it’s sad
This is definitively a wing and is why I'm using it as an example. Therefore, the next time you wonder whether or not a an aerodynamic device is a wing or a spoiler simply look at the end of this wing at the 2:01 mark. Notice the curved shape which is thicker at the leading (front) edge and tapers (is thinner) toward the trailing (rear) edge. If you look at most aircraft you'll notice the wing is thick at the leading edge and tapers toward the trailing edge. It's that shape that results in lift. A spoiler on the other hand does NOT have such an aerodynamic cross-section and is designed to reduce drag by controlling the airflow off the back of the car in a manner that prevents it from inducing drag. Again: A wing produces downforce. Whereas a spoiler helps prevent drag*. Two distinctly different purposes and names. *Results in improved fuel mileage which varies depending on several criteria.
Great comment thank u
@@kamaalmcilwain9625 Thanks! I was afraid it would be seen as being a little too wordy. Not that I ever am. ;)
