Thanks for the info. I'm right on the border on the date but the dealer may not have gotten their equipment and fluid at that time.
Oh well. Going in in a week to get it checked out. No way I'm going to let them work on the trans, only flush.

Here is the Techlink that explains the timing of the 2019 changes: https://gm-techlink.com/?p=11127

So yeah, budgeting for a triple-flush service every 50k or so might be worthwhile.

EDIT2: Triple flush procedure. Interestingly also says Camaro was clean as of Feb 1, 2019. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...63890-9999.pdf Hilariously the tech gets paid 1.1 hrs. No fcuking way you can do that procedure completely with a drive test in an hr and make a half-buck on the job. So bring donuts and red bulls on the day you drop off your car.
