I have a clutch that is delaminating. had the valve full of clutch material. so I have to pull the...

    Tried a tcm i had laying there and still the same thing. Pulled the spin on filter and there was no excessive debris on the magnet. Pulled the pan down to check the internal filter and it was still up in there. There was some red flakes in the bottom of the pan that i thought was clutch...

    Now it's gotten more complicated. Went into what i thought was limp mode the other night. Now when i put it in any gear the indicator flashes at me and it wont move. I had a code on the cts. Just a p0700 but i erased the code before i could check it with a good code reader. Thought it was just...

    I am glad you came back and updated us. I am having the same issue in my 2002 with a built trans. Seems like 2 to 3 it stutters, then 4 to 5 it stutters, then bangs into gear while downshifting. It just seems really delayed. When i come to a complete stop, the truck jumps forward after about 1...

    4l80 torque converter lockup question.

    Alright gentlemen, i know this isnt duramax or allison related but i know a lot of you guys have knowledge in other departments as well. I have a group of friends that pull gas trucks. They run in 1st gear and would like to be able to lock the converter. The problem is that there is no way to...

    ZF6 Pullers out there?

    sounds good on paper but just like the other guy said, getting out of the hole is an entirely different story. yes we realize the clutch is a wear item but either way you come off the line, it rough on things. moral of the story is, auto trans is better.
