@doingstuffwithdylan4367 Thanks for this helpful video! Educated guess, its a Gen2 6T70? I Have a 2014 Lacrosse with 120k. For the last 25K it has a bad shudder in the 2-3 upshift, only when up to op temp. If i manual shift 1-2 and 2-3 taking the Rs above 4 it rarely happens. I bought a 50k Tranny from the same car. I have never torn into a tranny before. I am mechanical and my BiL is very mechanical, works on cars for lots of folks including motor and trannt swaps. I have serious questions. Q1: Should i use orig tecm and put new seals in the solenoids or should i use the new one, reseal and reprogram? Q2: Valve body...when i look at these online they stipulate an upper and or lower valve body. Is is a sandwich or are there actually 2 in separate locations? Q3: Valve body... i want to put a kit in it, clean and replace wear parts, there are several out there by several makers. Can you tell me if this is easy or difficult for someone who has never done it, whats the best choice here? Q4: the torque converter: my guess is use the new on with lower miles, can it be drained and filled before i swap these trannies?

is this to address the TSB for shudder GM put out a while ago?

[@doingstuffwithdylan4367]

No, this was just to try to verify the transmission had to come back out.

Hi, the seals on the TEHCM are blowened so I'm replacing with the latest GM TEHCM, Computer included. Will I need to program with a Tech 2? Or will it just plug and play? Ty

[@doingstuffwithdylan4367]

Programming will be required!

[@DMR730]

Thanks for the quick reply... So I should reuse the same computer to avoid the programming??

[@doingstuffwithdylan4367]

You can try to reuse the techm if you can’t program. If it is good, it should work, but they do have problems with us sometime.

[@DMR730]

Thank you for the tips... I'm hoping my Autel will be able to marry the system.

At what point do you just do this, my car is shuddering at 40 and 60 mph. Everyone is wanting to simply replace my transmission and not just certain components?

[@doingstuffwithdylan4367]

Probably need a transmission rebuild. At least maybe a used one will work

[@doingstuffwithdylan4367]

Your problem is probably the converter or a broken wave plate
