You have a 5 year/60K mile powertrain warranty FYI. The trans is covered under that, not your 3 year/36K bumper to bumper.

It definitely matches up with what I have seen and experienced. Apparently no 2018s have had the issue confirmed either. So that matches the 3/17 build dates. Glad we have official statement that the...

They should have told you it can take up to 200 miles following the flush for it to go away (believe it even says it in the TSB).

I will tell you mine still had the shudder the first day after...

Either your dealer is very familiar with the shudder issue because they have worked several cases already, or they haven't in which case they will end up giving you the runaround. Best advice is to...

Cruise set on 64. Can't remember the RPM but it's under 2K for sure. That seems to be the sweet spot for gearing/aero. Climbing up to 75mph I see a solid 3-4mpg drop. And I can't drive 55! :headbang:

Hate to burst their bubble, but the shudder has been reported on turbo 4s, the CTS-V, and ATS-V which I believe all do not have AFM. Now could AFM be a contributing factor, I'd definitely say yes....

Klayman is right. The downshift then upshift is what keeps AFM from reengaging. But I can tell you both once the issue becomes bad enough, the shudder will appear in V4 and V8 modes, as well as...

1. Exhaust note change is normal in V4, especially if you have NPP and set to track mode.

2. The shudder can be felt in the wheel pretty quickly. It will feel like a tire is out of balance.

Flush cleared the issue for about 2-300 miles, then started coming back. This time I even notice surging at light throttle (not just the shudder). Took it back to the dealer this...

There's a problem with that statement, the issue doesn't affect all vehicles and isn't specific to just the Camaro or even just SS models.

If the slip tables are the cause, then that problem would...

There's definitely mixed results on whether the flush alone fixes the problem. My guess is it has to do with number of miles and how bad the issue got before action taken. The fluid flush would not...

AFM is not the cause. Contaminated ATF was mentioned awhile back as the real cause which made the clutches in the TC wear out or starving the TC for fluid which produces the shudder. At least that is...

What was the last auto you drove? The current crop of 8 speed autos (GM and ZF units) lock up the TC at low speeds. This results in "abrupt" shifts from 1-2 and 2-1 at low throttle inputs (since this...
