Service Transmission Now, Unable to Shift Soon

[Koppster]

2023 ZR2, bought Dec 22, 35558 miles.

Got this warning two days ago. The articles and posts I read ranged from Gear Shift Selector Module to Transmission Control Module or Battery, apparently it is a known common issue. I decided to take it to the Dealer.

In my case it turned out to be the battery. The cost was $369, tested, installed and tested again. Not bad IMO, Interstate would have cost $300 to $425 depending on which battery I chose.

FWIW, this supports my belief that batteries last 36 months in TX.

Yeah batteries ain't cheap, especially at the dealer. They barely make 2-3 years sometimes in Arizona. Just dry up in the heat. Both my Tahoe and 1500 are 3 years old. Debating about taking pre-emptive action.

I was looking at the Walmart Everstart Platinum AGMs the other day and they go for $189 for the H6 for my diesel. They have a four year warranty and get nearly 5 star reviews. About the best deal you can find.

I know a lot of folks hate on Walmart but I dont mind their batteries. They are made by JC anyway if I remember correctly.

This happened to me last month. It ended up being my battery too. I purchased one from Advance Auto for a bit over 300 bones.
