    So mostly highway miles. Mostly non towing scenarios. A weak powertrain warranty. A $6200 dollar transmission. A failed starter. A failed thermostat. Probably needs a new battery (we get that) all by 80,000 miles. What a joke this truck has broken down on me 3 different times. How nice the 60,000 mile warranty saved me on the thermostat that failed at 30,000 miles. But not the transmission. The 6l80e in my 2018 silverado was clunky and jerky from the day I bnought it. Should have known. Lesson learned I guess.
    Watch the travel MISadventure I had to deal with getting the truck back home, only to fail once again. My wife's 2011 DODGE NITRO has less rust on it than my truck does and it's 7 years older and has 140,000 miles on it. LIKE GIMMEE A BREAK.
    Let me know your horror stories

    My 2018 Silverado had the same issues. I had 93,000 miles, mostly highway and without mountains. Never towed anything and it had a complete failure that left me stranded 3 days ago, in the same town as your video. They said my repairs would be around $6700. lol. That was my 9th Silverado and it will be my last, Never had any issues with my other Silverado's. The infortunate part is GM knows the 2018 Silverado's have a transmission problem and won't do anything to help the consumer. That's where my loyalty ends!

      @@Kylewraps Almost every guy with a 6L80 that needed to be rebuilt has never changed the transmission fluid & filter (even after confirming that the trans fluid is "burnt smelling") and would rather jump online and complain. They don't do any research so they could find out the transmission cooler bypass valve has had a TSB out for years with a new part that keeps the transmission cooler. 6L80's die because they run too hot. The TSB and new part fix that. Widely known information even back around 2018.

    Mine just had the same issue. 90,000 miles and the torque converter grenaded itself on the highway. I heard about this online so I got it into the dealership right away before the debris from the converter completely destroyed the transmission. Luckily, I bought an extended powertrain warranty from the same dealership so I only had to pay $100. However, I will never buy another GM product after I'm done with my Sierra.

    • @tylerross2403
      @tylerross2403 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The main issue is the thermostat valve sticks closed and overheats transmission causing the torque converter to fail, best thing to do is get bypass kit, and also reprogramming better shifting point no slipping from fuel management system. Yeah it's B.S engineering to fail so you have to spend money for repairs, GM used to produce high quality trucks in the 90's and early 00's

    Same problem I bought a 2019 Silverado and the torque converter went, got it fixed and not even a 2 days it went again , so I bought the truck from Bob Chevrolet in MD. Took it to my dealership Lucas Chevy in New Jersey and told me they didn’t do it right, fix the problem and so far so good, but I will definitely keep the warranty up for I love the truck.

    I'm glad I found out about these issues. I am having a few small problems with my 2010 F150 with 113,000 miles and was thinking about trading it for an 18 Silverado near me. It sucks that these aren't as reliable as the older ones (2004 ish) like my grandfather had.

    • @karlschauff7989
      @karlschauff7989 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Gotta change the transmission fluid and there's been a TSB out for years about changing the transmission cooler bypass valve. This guy didn't do either of those things which is why his torque converter clutch eventually cooked itself and filled the transmission with junk. Instead of doing the thing a responsible well-adjusted guy would do, he decided to ignore it, make a youtube video whining about it, and put some junk additive in it instead.

  • @gcrauwels941

    I have a '15 Silverado LT 4X4 with the 6L80 that I got from a Chevy dealer in '17 (lease return) 21K miles. First thing I did was have it tuned by Lew (Diablew) and had AFM disabled (warranty? pfft). I also did some other mods (second battery, subwoofer, exhaust, intake tube etc.). I welded a drain plug to my transmission pan at first service so I do drain & fills every second or third oil change (@4K) which gets about half the fluid. I recently put in a TBV bypass that dropped the temp ~45F (~190F to ~145F). I rarely tow with it but live around mountains. I have 96K currently and so far so good.🤞
    The 6L80 is itself a decent transmission. There are a few things that can contribute to problems. Sonnax's website has a great explanation on the torque converter's weaknesses which can send metal through the transmission. There is speculation the AFM contributes to the failures as well.
    Chevrolet gives as much a sh!t about the consumer as much as the government, which is zero. Sorry you had so many problems. This generation of Silverado had early teething problems, got better, then got worse IMHO.

  • @eschaton2834
    @eschaton2834 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I have the same year the same color the same window tint Scheme. Had to have my cam shaft and lifters replaced at 40,000 miles. Now I'm 90,000 in and the transmission is slipping. WTF. Might be the last Chevy I buy.

  • @TheLouisianan
    @TheLouisianan ปีที่แล้ว +13

    The "no servicing the fluid" thing is a myth and I don't know how it started. The owners manual says to change it every 60k miles I believe, but from what I've read from other people, these transmissions need fluid changes at a way lower interval (more like 30k miles). A common failure mode is the TCC will eventually wear through the Front Cover (which is attached to the flywheel). When that happens, the clutch can't fully engage (where it's job is to give a smooth transmission from Fluid Flow to locking up the Stator). In addition, when GM made the 2014-2018s they changed the programming so that you get TCC slip at every gear change instead of skipping the lower gears like they did on the 2013s and back so this process happens much more frequently than the previous generation. When your TCC doesn't engage you get that clunk sensation.
    Even bigger problem is that metallic dust and clutch material rubbing off over time is getting mixed into your trans fluid and flows into all the galleries, check valves, gears, etc. and will rapidly ruin your Torque Convertor and the Transmission itself. That's why if not caught early, you need a transmission rebuild and you always need to flush the lines going to the radiator as well because there will be metallic and clutch debris in the lines.
    Long story short, post bailout GM cheaped out and won't admit they made a mistake. For that, I hope they go out of business for good and never get bailed out.

      Yes the updated trans cooler bypass valve has been widely known about for years. There's like 50 videos showing a variety of ways to run the transmission at a lower operating temp. That TSB has been out for years.

    I think the best transmission replacement for these trucks are found in the aftermarket built with aftermarket parts and torque converters. The aftermarket has done a lot of improvements in the transmissions as far as the quality of parts , sonnax has fixed a lot of the problems to correct a pos transmission gmc produced to make it reliable.

  • @James-rk6go

    Sh!t 😬 Bubba, it sure sounds like you got a lemon that was built on a Friday.
    You fried your torque converter.
    I bought my 2016 True North LT 5.3 4 × 4 brand new and she is still MINT.
    75,000 original KM w/buttery smooth 6L80E. About to install the STL 010 kit to keep the trans cool and prolong her life...even though I have never seen it get hotter than 162°F with the stock bypass.
    Amsoil signature ATF, Red Line D - 6, or Mobil 1 blue label ATF is best for these GM 6L80E AND 8L80E's.
    Mine is a Fort Wayne built truck. The ONLY issue I have EVER had was a burnt out passenger side tail light bulb lol. LOVE my truck, she's been solid as a rock...
    New Borla S - type dual exhaust, S & B cold air intake, Taylor 409 plug wire set and Denso TT plugs going in this spring.
    I've always ran Mobil 1 Extended Performance full synthetic spec'd motor oil and Mobil 1 oil filter. I run a chrome UPR catch can setup and a range AFM disabler and my motor purrs like a kitten and runs strong, like new. Sorry for your bad luck of the draw brah...sounds like you've had a polar opposite experience with your Chevy as I have had with mine!

    First Chevy 1996 brand new, put 273,000 hard miles before trans went out, never changed the fluid. Second Chevy 2005, put 278,000 no problems with trans. Traded for 2016 111,000 miles, trans goes out. Replaced it last summer at the dealership, now it's doing the same shit again. Looked into it these torque converters are shit. I'll probably get a Toyota next. I've heard nothing but bad news on Chevy, Dodge, and Ford.

    Your experience does not parallel with my experience on my 2017 Silverado.
    I had the transmission thermostat fix done at the dealer and tuned out the AFM as soon as I bought it at 77,000 miles.
    It had a great service history and I have the transmission fluid done at every other oil change.
    Still going strong at 95,000.
    Obviously, experiences can be different but, again, for me, no issues with my 2017.

      From what I've been told the transmission fluid on these Chevys should be changed every 30,000 miles preferably before that. A fluid change usually fixes the shudder unless you've been driving it like that for awhile than its probably to late

    My 2018 had the camshaft/lifter sh*t the bed at 41,000 miles. I heard about the transmission issues and made sure to flush the fluid immediately and again at 75,000 and 100,000 miles. I was just getting close to 120,000 and after reading many articles about the Silverados, I was looking at trading it in for a Toyota last week. Jumped in for a short trip to the store yesterday and had the immediate lurching, slipping, hunting, hard shift and hard down shift symptoms. Turned around to head back home and by the time I got to my driveway the trans was making very audible grinding whining noises. I’ve never ever towed anything. I’ve never driven it hard (I’m 64 years old. My hot rod days are long past) and always maintained it. Water pump failed / replaced. Struts failed / replaced. Drivers side motor mount failed / replaced. Brake front rotors overheated blued / replaced (again never towed anything and I’m not an aggressive driver). I’ve bought 12 different GM Chevrolet vehicles in my lifetime. Very satisfied with all but the last three. Thanks, Chevy. I gave you every opportunity to earn my business..You finally drove me away to another manufacturer. #neverchevyagain

    I have a 2019 Silverado 1500 with an 8-speed trans. Tons of strange vibrations, subtle sometimes but they are there. Also had extremely and loud hard shifts going from reverse to drive that I believe may have damaged something. Also, slips and hard delayed shifts on rolling stops. A lot of this happened during the pandemic and was impossible to get any work done on it. I've had the truck in for service at the dealership 4 times now totaling about a month and a half I was out of a vehicle(of course no one has any loaner vehicles either). Dealership fixes have been a new wiring harness for the trans, trans fluid flush, reprogramming of the trans computer. All this has made things better, but not fixed. Also, now I've had rear diff fluid leaking. When they opened the diff they found "abnormal wear" on the gears. Replaced gears and and seal. A couple months later diff was leaking again. Seal seems to be holding for now, but still vibrations and shifts that are not right. This has all been extremely frustrating and I'm not sure what to do. I bought another chevy because my 2001 silverado was an awesome truck that I had very few problems with. Now I'm not so sure about GM products. GM needs to make this right.

    I had the same starting issue when the 2018 I bought used had about 25K on it. Improved for a while after I cleaned and reconnected the negative battery cable ground connection to the frame. GM thought it a good idea to position that directly behind the passenger side from wheel. IDIOTS! Then a few months later it started happening again and left me stranded 4 hours from home on the first day of are vacation on top of a mountain at a rented vacation home on a farm. Lucky for me I had tools with me and found a spot on the farm to jack the truck up enough to remove the right front tire and inner fender to inspect the starter motor and related wiring. Another stroke of luck was my sister had come that weekend too in her car and drove me down the mountain to the auto parts store where I purchased a new starter. I went with one by Mitsubishi instead of AC Delco this time. A few dollars more but IMHO a much better warranty and much better starter! No starting problems at all ever since! I have 42K on my truck now.

    I had a 05 tahoe it made it to 320,000 miles before the 4L60E the original transmission started to go out along with the frame so I got a loan on a 2013 subaru outback and 6 MONTHS of having it and it has destroyed 4 transmissions and you saw it correctly 4 OF THEM and 5 is on its way out I tell you this no one knows how to make a vehicle anymore and no one seems to put good transmissions in anymore either

    My GMC 1500 Sierra Denali 2018 at 34k miles crapped out with the shuddering one year ago. They replaced the transmission but claim it's fine and shifting properly. I have 41k miles on it now and it's still a piece of garbage. STAY away from GM. They totally won't do right by the customer.

    The drivetrain service interval is 45,000 miles. Also, your starting issue is likely a loose starter cable from the transmission replacement. The jump pack was able to push the extra volts through the loose connection.

I have an extended warranty for the next year and a half or 15k miles. You think I should trade it in and cut my losses (I still owe on it). Or just wait til the thing blows and hope it’s still under warranty. I really wana dump the piece of shit but the warranty is the only thing that’s keeps me around. Let me know what you think.
