As I was driving home tonight, I had the trailer attached with no load. I was coming up a hill which I come up everyday on my way home. I felt a kick in the tranny. Afterwards the chime when off and I looked down at the cluster and the center said 'check transmission' and the o/d light was flashing. After about 1 minute it went away. Just had the tranny serviced with a fluid change about 3 weeks ago and they said the fluid looked great and there were no shavings. Can anyone help me out here. Maybe someone has had this issue. Any help or info would be grateful
I've read up about these 5r55w's and seems ALOT of these have issues with the valve body. I wont have a chance to get the code until Wednesday or Thursday. Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem. Drive it, or do NOT drive it?
IF it is the valve body, what would your opinion be on replacing the solenoid pack as well? Knock it all out in 1 shot. Or should I just replace the VB only?
Also, a few weeks ago I was having a small shift flare from 4th to 5th/OD. I decided to start driving without OD beings most of my driving is done in the city. Everything had been working properly until lastnight. Do you think the issue from lastnight could be connected with the 4th to 5th/OD shift flare?
