I apologize that there are no light bulbs or soldering involved with that.... LOL

Seriously, next time I'm at the yard I'm going to find one and pull it, for surgical purposes.

Ok. So I left the house today, after letting the Yukon warm up for 10 minutes or so.. I drove about 3 blocks from my house, and turned a corner.. DING DING DING DING.. the dreaded sound. DIC said “DRIVER DOOR AJAR”, and the motor shutoff! I coasted to the right, and came to a stop. No idea went wrong. She started right back up, and no further issues running a few errands, but wtf. I know I need to do the big 3, but other than that, any ideas? I’m imagining this happening as I’m pulling into traffic to merge on the highway or some shit..!

WTF!? :confused:o_O

Went to the junkyard in search of the little storage compartment where that remote tape deck goes for when I get a double DIN.

Found one in a Silverado. The best part is that I found someone's secret stash. That must be why they cut a hole in the back of the compartment.

It does pay to go to the junkyard, in more ways than one.

So,.... You experienced that "Zen spark" when you discovered the found cash?

Nice...... 2 yards!! ( Tonyrodz knows what a 'yard' is)

I get that fun feeling once in a while.... Next to the condo complex I manage, there's a bar....
Drunk people pull their keys out of their pocket & don't realize their loose cash fly's out of their pocket...
I find it in our grass next morning...

Cut my trans filter open

Hardly anything in there. Some very fine metallic debris on the filter. The fine stuff. Coarse bits were from my saw, don't mind those. Pleats seemed fairly clean

And I can verify these filters have a bypass valve, though an oddly designed one

Was thinking that maybe a restriction issue. So I tossed a line splice in there and ran no filter. Shifted the same.

Soooo my takeaway from this is I think these trans are picker on fluid than they perhaps let on. Kind of backs my previous experimentation with messing with different fluids and noting which ones my trans seemed to like vs. Less so.

Take that info how you will
