4L60E gone after 46K!! y and how did this happen? I bought the car after it was wrecked and fixed with 31000 miles and it currently has 46K on it and tranny's gone. drove regularly everyday with the ocasional races. Now when me and my freind put on the headers we noticed tweaking under neath and a non-stock driveshaft from the wreck. My guess: T-boned really hard from the wreck on the driver's side, replaced rear axle (maybe thats y i have 3.42's instead of the stock 2.73's), replaced drive shaft that maybe tweaked tranny. No visible tranny case damage.
Any inputs?

i had 30k on my z and the tranny took a ****. i was getting it dyno tuned when it went out. the 3rd gear clutch pack burned up, and i wasn't hard on the car either. any reasons, i couldn't tell ya.
I've seen this happen with as little as 12,000 miles so don't feel bad. Please take some time and view our transmissions. If you have any questions please feel free to give Chuck a call anytime. Thank you for your time, Vince.
It is one of those questions I to have seen then go out with very low miles and then i have seen them beat the crap out of to 150000 miles .
What did it actually or is doing ?

i backed up and pulled off like normal, then sped up to 15 and its like i just pushed it in neutral. I dont have 1st gear when i have it in drive or third, but i do have 1st and 2nd gears and Reverse.

mine went out just a couple of months ago right at about that mileage with the same symptoms. my car is modded quite a bit more than yours, and was babied pretty well. it had seen maybe 6 track passes and was rarely driven hard on the street. just took a dump on me on the way home one night. talk to vince@FLT. he is good people.
sold me one of their level 4 4l60s for a heck of a deal and their tech support is head and shoulders above the rest. my car feels like it pulls 10 times harder, night and day difference. Trending Topics
