My 16 started to shudder after one year and 10,000 miles. I'm in Wisconsin and was coming out of a long winter. It literally shuddered the first time on the way home from Great Lakes Dragaway where I did five early spring passes.

Coincidental to the OP, I sold it and bought a 18 Hot Wheels 2SS with a M6 to get away from the A8.

I lost confidence after GM's 2017 new fluid fix didn't appear to solve the problem and I didn't want to go through the hassle of flush and TC replacement again.
