transmission vibration

i have a 2017 Camaro RS with the 4 cylinder Turbo, It just rolled over 7000 miles and i have began to notice it having vibration usually when i'm running down the road a normal speeds. I read on another post of a similar situation. It feels like i've ran over little speed bumps and usually last only a few seconds to about a minute or two. speeds are usually between 30 and about 55 mph but sunday i was on a major highway and felt it at a much higher speed, I had OnStar run a diagnosis but nothing was detected. I am taking it to the local dealership to have it checked out. in the other forum i read that it was most likely the torque converter. i was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue with a 2017 model as i believe the post i read early was from about a year to a year and a half ago. I believe they were 2015 and 2016 models I love this car and was planning a long road trip in July but now I'm concerned this might not be the best thing to do.....your thoughts on this?

Assuming you have the automatic transmission (A8), there are quite a few threads on the A8 shudder already. I suggest that you start with the "official" response and check your car's build date: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=527133. Also, there is a TSB for this (16-NA-175) that the dealership will almost certainly be aware of.

update to my post

when the service manager informed me they would only be flushing my transmission one time i was concerned they might not be addressing the issue correctly but upon a closer look i found the following info


all applications except the 2017/2018 chevrolet colorado and gmc canyon service procedures


the flush appears to only be required 1 time


for the 2017/2018 chevrolet colorado and gmc canyon service procedures

it does say a "triple flush"

You are correct... I ran into the same thing. There is an updated bulletin.

My dealer did the single flush and it did nothing to help. Now i am getting the run around and trying to get them to replace the TC.
I wish you good luck.
