Hey guys

just letting you know for any of you that do own a 2014-2020 Silverado/Sierra/Yukon/Tahoe with a 6L80 (MYC) transmission, there is a new thermal bypass valve available for them. It lowers the opening temp of the valve to 158 when it’s fully open vs previous design 190. They are wanting us to install these anytime during a rebuild or even for a customer concern of any kind. Even if we can’t duplicate it. So that tells me their engineers think these lower trans temps will help.

Part Numbers
86774933 Thermal Bypass Valve
23135703 Seal (between tbv and converter housing)

You’re fine there. GM didn’t have a thermal bypass valve on those years. There is just a small aluminum block that secures both trans cooler lines coming into bell housing.
