Help me!
I just bought a 100k miles 2010 Avalanche LT Z71 and it happens to be a lemon... or that's what I'm guessing. Transmission is giving me a lot of troubles after a 12 hours of driving it on a fuel stop when I shift to R or D nothing happens, I have to rev up to 3,000 rpm to get it moving. Fortunately on 5 and 6th gears I was able to drive the last 4 hours of my journey and also after adding some Lucas Additive on the transmission.
Now trying to fix my 6e80e transmission (seems that's the one installed on this Avy) I got quotes from $3,500 up to $4,1000 to get it fixed. Rebuilding transmission and replacing the ECU.
Can anybody give me some feedback on this or gimme options to move, as I said I just bought it and now I got the debt of the car with a huge reparation pending to make it reliable....
Advices?
TIA!
