Blown trannie, 35k miles
I’ve posted this link before but here it is. http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_p...les1.php?id=23
The main line is “We have dissected more of these trannies than anyone else in the performance after-market, and we have yet to see a single heat-related failure. Hard parts break in these trannies,”

I don’t think it has any thing to do with beating on the cars. My best guess is I have 380hp and a bone stock trany; I beat on it like a TBSS guy beating on an LS4 guy on the Internet, and it holding up fine. I think its luck off the draw, there are a lot of these trany out there but no one post any thing up when they are working good.
I meant to qoute this with that last post.oops.
Just had mine re-built and a trans. cooler is next on the list. Even a 10 degree drop will make parts last longer. So after that I will have the finned pan and a trans. cooler. Our GXP's transmissions run hotter than the 3800's do for some reason.
