I swapped out my converter and the problem seems to be fixed. Damn that trans fluid is expensive.
Chris at circleD hooked me up with a stock converter for free/exchange. Partly because they just need cores to work with but I think mostly because he wants to know what the issue is. They are great over there. |

He would have if I wanted to buy one. Both of their current options use the stock shell. One is a modified stock internals and the other is billet internals. I think they both get upgraded lock up clutch material. I am waiting until they get their pro series sorted out.

The guy who changed the converted said it does at all modes, what about us that only does with v4 mode? It is annoying, I really wanted the M6 and my wife forced me to get automatic so she can drive it too

I am experiencing the same issue. Once the transmission is up to normal operating temperature, shifting from 4th to 5th and from 5th to 6th the transmission shudders until throttle pressure is changed. The issue is also present while the vehicle is in 8th gear at steady throttle between 65 - 67 mph.
I am scheduling an appointment with the dealer today. I'll post the results. |

Update: The issue can't be re-created per the service tech. So, I am going to pick up the vehicle, give it more time to develop, and then return with the vehicle for another attempt to re-create the issue. I will post any changes.

Only time I notice anything like this is when the car is cold and moving slowly it seems to shudder a bit in the parking lot. Sometimes I notice this same feeling as I am slowing to a stop (even after it's warmed up). Almost like it is hunting for a gear.
I think the obvious fix might be cam and lifters and deactivate the AFM |

The issue in th original post is very obvious and for me it happened every time I drove the car. I have about 300 miles on the replacement converter and the problem appears to be resolved.

Another Update: While driving the vehicle the issue re-surfaced. I PM'd the Chevrolet Customer Service contact here and they facilitated another apointment with the dealer. I took it in this morning and had the mechanic ride with me this time. He noticed the issue within the first mile or so and has ordered a new torque converter and Mobil 1 HP fluid. Repairs will happen next week.
I will update after the repairs are completed and I have driven the vehicle. |

I had my 6spd 17ss bought back by the dealer after coolant leak, overheating, and water pump failing-all w/50 mi on the car.
Was considering an automatic but this is really kind of shameful. A nearly $40k car with these issues with a lot of "me too"s. Buying an auto sounds like a roll of the dice and it shouldn't be. |
