2014 Tahoe LT 166k miles
6L80e transmission
Idk how many threads I’ve made about my transmission… in February I bought 2014 Tahoe with 166k miles and was having weird and rough shifts after about a week or so, I took it back to dealership and they said transmission fluids were dirty (after salesman’s told me fluids were all changed)
Got the transmission fluids changed and the problem persisted.
So after I learned he lied about something I tired my hardest to return it. Unfortunately no lemon laws in my state and no return policies on loans I guess. I begged for them to take it back with no luck.
Fast forward to now I just feel like the shifting is getting worse and I feel like im losing power. When going from 1st to 2nd it shouldn’t feel like the whole vehicle is like jumping or Rocking forward when shifting gears, Only seems to be 1st and 2nd gear, and especially noticeable when just lightly pressing throttle. Rest of the gears feels like there is no power when I need it on demand. The gas pedal feels like a frickin brick too and very mushy.
So should I just wait for it to fail? Or get it fixed now? What if it’s not even the transmission? I do have a missing stud on my manifold and a leak apparently, but I can’t find where.
