My A8 never had any probs on my 2015 C7. Just that hard shift out of park when it is very hot. Not done it in months but now with 90's coming back we will see if it does it again.

As TP2SS says, whether a flush and a filter is enough depends on how long the trans was used after the shudder began, if the TCC clutch is worn too far, unfortunately OP's wife will need a new torque converter as well (loved the quick language lesson, too ). Let's hope the flush will be sufficient.

Wow, I don't think they ever did the software update on my 2017. I had to get the triple flush twice. I still have the hard 1-2 shift.

Do the trans fluid & filter change yourself. I did mine last year and I'm 67 yrs old with a bad back and arthritis in my hands.

Class Action Against GM For Defective Transmission General Motors (GM) has settled a class action lawsuit for selling vehicles with defective 8-speed automatic transmissions. It is reported that GM sold over 800,000 vehicles with these faulty transmissions without disclosing the issue to customers prior to purchase. Consequently, the class action settled in 26 states as the automaker sold defective transmission vehicles and allowed them to operate on public roads, endangering drivers, passengers, and pedestrians. Lawsuit Charges The lawsuit particularly relates to vehicles equipped with GM’s 8L90 or 8L45 transmissions, manufactured between 2015 and March 1, 2019. The lawsuit asserts that General Motors made a deliberate business decision to withhold information from customers about the transmissions’ subpar performance, despite being aware of the issue. This conduct is believed to be a violation of state consumer protection laws. The lawsuit seeks reimbursement for any expenses associated with repairs incurred due to the defective transmission and to hold General Motors accountable for not informing customers transparently and promptly. https://thelemonfirm.com/2023/03/24/...tection%20laws. |
