    Should I buy 2018 Tahoe 2WD with 160000 mi? Transmission Life?

    13-14k would be a good offer. If its the original transmission I would prepare yourself for a replacement and have another 5k ready. I have a 2017 with 162k on it and had to replace my transmission last summer.

    Torque Converter

    Agree, go with the 18 if you can. I had a TC go on my 6 speed, so that meant a whole new tranny. Not fun. I heard there is a class action lawsuit on some of GM's transmission. I know its for the 8 speed, but hope maybe the 6 speeds will be included. Seems to be a very common issue, so much...

    Doors lock immediately after unlock

    In case this happens to anyone else. I found some instructions online to reprogram a fob, however none of them worked. On my 2017 with key start compared to the online videos I found, they all had a different informational system than mine. I don't have actual gauge clusters across the top...

    Doors lock immediately after unlock

    I wish my issue was that easy. I took apart the fob and nothing looks amiss. I did use the truck yesterday and left the fob dismantled and the issue was gone. I have a replacement fob on the way. I hope the old fob will work for the programming of the new fob. Looks like the mystery is...

    Doors lock immediately after unlock

    As noted, I only have one fob so its an easy test. I pulled the battery out of my one Fob and I took the truck out for errand. No auto locking. I guess I'll take a look at internals of the fob and see if I can't see what the issue is. I've found some instructions on pairing a new fob, however...

    Doors lock immediately after unlock

    I'm not finding much on this issue. Using the fob when I unlock the doors, they immediately lock. I have to hold the unlock button until I open the door and then use the doors unlock button to unlock the rest of doors. As soon as I release the unlock button on the fob all doors lock again. I...

    2016 Tahoe Trans failure

    I'll get details. I do know they are not rebuilding mine, but are looking to replace it with a remanufactured trans

    2016 Tahoe Trans failure

    The transmission shop confirmed the TC is going. I have the 6 speed so they recommended a new transmission. Quote is $5,500 for rebuilt trans and 3 year warranty. Is that on par?

    RPMs jumping when driving

    Well, you guys were right...... I found another thread and in that thread mentioned a "wash boarding" sound which I really didn't notice as I run mud tires but that did get me thinking that I was hearing it more. That thread mentioned a failing torque converter and every symptom he had, I...

    2016 Tahoe Trans failure

    Thanks all for the information. I called my local shop and they recommended a transmission place up the road. I chatted with them and will take it in this week.

    2016 Tahoe Trans failure

    Oh no....... I posted this on July 18th rpms-jumping-when-driving and just seeing this post. Hmm, what just got me thinking was the "washboard shudder" statement. A few times I think I've experienced this, however I run mud tires so I tend to always her the washboard sound. Does the vehicle...

    RPMs jumping when driving

    Hmm, thanks for the reply and yes I thought about the transmission as well. It doesn't seem like its slipping but what you have listed does get me thinking as its just doesn't feel right in the shifting patterns. Oh, and I will add that no hard vehicle bucking or surges have been noted. Sure...

    RPMs jumping when driving

    I guess at this point since there are no other suggestions, I'll need to take this into a shop to have them diagnose. I'm at a loss.

    RPMs jumping when driving

    No check engine light. I have a older ScanGauge device I've used for some time. To say its a quality bi-directional scanner, I'd say not but its what I got.
