Hopefully this completely fixes it. Anyone know what is different about this revised torque converter? Service advisor couldn't really tell me

How did you convince them to chance your TC?

I didn't. They told me the technician said it needed replacing along with the new service bulliten. I was surprised as well, since GM specifically stated to not change the TC with the new bulliten. I don't get it...but I'll gladly take it lol

I loved my 2017 SS, and I thought the transmission was great. It would sometimes jerk when coming to a stop, and it had a lazy engagement of 4th to 5th, but totally acceptable behavior and the car was an absolute blast. The shudder occurred in a place I never drive in and I only began to notice while driving my wife using cruise control and making her comfortable (11-1500rpm slight load @50mph).

But Chevy approved the buy back (which my dealer had suggested) and gave me a full refund, even after the fluid flush which was done in February and seemed to fix it - transmission was working great! Over 2 years, 6 sets of tires, and 42,000 miles on the car! And they considered my use to stop at 4600 miles so I got a substantial refund.

With my resources restored, I shopped all over again for a car - drove Mustang GT, Charger, Challenger, considered a more family oriented vehicle. But apparently I’m still stuck on the Camaro - nothing else compares, nothing gives me the same feeling, not Porsche, nor BMW, nor Mercedes, nothing I’ve driven, and there have been many.

Although apprehensive about comfort, I ended up with a 2019 1LE. I have gone 2500 miles in less than 3 weeks and I have absolutely no regrets. This car amazes me every day. I love the stick, the suspension, the seats. Thank you GM!!!

I have not heard of any new revised torque converter for the Camaro. I have read where the new 19 Silverado and Sierra trucks have a new type. You could check by looking at the part number for the new torque converter they put in and check it against the part number for the old torque converter. A new revised part would have a different number. Chances are, you got a new converter that is the exact same as the one that came out of your car.

24293013 is number on my invoice. I look it up and see nothing stating that it's revised. Do you or anyone know if this is the same number as the original one?

From the "ask Al" question on the A8 shudder, he stated that if you have the shudder too long without a flush and new fluid, it will damage the clutches too much. At that point, you need a new TC, no fluid change will fix it.

I believe the "no TC replacements" was only temporary and just to keep doing fluid flushes until the new fluid was available. The new fluid would then solve some of the issues out there, and for those it does not, it would then need a new TC. GM just didn't want to replace TCs if the issue on some was needing the new fluid HP Mobil fluid (blue label).

"nothing gives me the same feeling, not Porsche, nor BMW". That is difficult to understand when both of those are far superior cars.

Where can one find the info on this law suit. I want to be ready with ammo in case I need to go through the ringer with my transmission issues.

Thanks.
