Replacement transmission

Anyone had there A8 replaced and have a bill on how much it costed chevy under warranty?

Just inquiring as mine is slipping in 1-2 gear and saw someone else who was also slipping and his tranny gave out this weekend. I'm fully expecting not to be covered under warranty but geico said they would cover it as long as I didn't intentionally cause the problem.

FWIW Warranty labor is different customer pay labor. As far as labor cost you will be paying more.

Why wouldn't it be covered under warranty?

His car I believe was in a serious accident, so I think that may be the reason.

Ok gotcha...transmission should still be covered, unless they can tey and link the mods to a transmission issue/failure. See if they can reprogram the TCM and ECM, that what was done with mine back in May I believe, similiar issues, works great now.
