If they told you this was normal, the need to fire the mechanic because my dealer found it right off the get and knew how to fix it.
Good luck
The slip yoke needs to be lubed. It worked. My dealer said this a temporary fix but gm is working on a permenant fix. You would think that if gm would sell a truck for $32,000 it would work right. I should of bought a Toyota. Know wonder their stock is at $5.
good luck

If your truck has a lot of hard tow miles it could be in need of some internal parts. If it's just 112k everyday miles then it could just be the 1-2 shift servo. The servo's are on the outside (side) of the 4L60e in your truck (assuming it's a 1500). It's an inexpensive quick fix also. The Hydro-Matic (GM) transmission is one of the best out there. BMW even uses the Hydro-Matic automatic trans. in their 5 Series cars. It's a very solid well built transmission. Don't listen to the GM haters out there.
I've always driven a Chevrolet from an '86 Chevy 3/4 ton 4x4,'96 Chevy Z71 to an '07 Tahoe and back to a Silverado. General Motors, GM Powertrain, makes the best most solid powertrains bar none. GM has the best interiors, the best ride and they are the most reliable out there.
Don't listen to the GM haters out there. We really do need the domestic auto makers around. They are a large part of our Gross Domestic Product and of the Big Three at least General Motors makes a great product. GM's board just needs to replace parts of upper management including CEO Rick Wagoner possibly with Bob Lutz the "car czar" who is credited with the recent improvements at GM. Besides, what would the president do without his sweet custom armored Cadillac. Our lawmakers won't let the Big Three fail, too much of a trickle down effect. They've just been burned twice by AIG (A**holes, Ignorant and Greedy) now, so Congress just wants a solid plan. USA-1!!
You need to check fuel pressure at the rail on motor and check it at the fuel filter.
If you got good pressure at the filter suppect the the fuel pressure regulator. If
pressure the same both spots suppect fuel pump is weak.
I am having a very difficult time removing the transmission pan on my 04 Suburban. The bracket that holds the shift cable is blocking me from dropping the pan down. I have tried bending it out of the way, but that doesn't work as it is too stiff to bend it very far. And I don't want to break it off of the transmission case. It looks like I need to drop/remove the exhaust Y and then I can "fold" the pan down at a 90 degree angle and slip it out from behind the bracket.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Today, I noticed that the transmission temperature gauge was barely reading anything. This is while driving over an hour at 55 mph in 45 degree weather not towing anything. Is this normal? If not, what could be the problem? Should I be concerned?
I drove it today in 64 degree weather at varying speeds from 35 to 65 for about two hours and it registered 80.
