For anyone unlucky enough to have bought one of these... :eek:
There are a few solutions to make this transmission work as it should:

Symptoms - You won't really notice anything except the failing solenoid
2)...
A completely refurb'd 5R55N is up for grabs. This is for a V6 bellhousing and comes with a refurb'd torque converter. This was $1500 and I needed a V8. :(
Any reasonable offer considered.
Newbie in need of TC help.
I got a steal on an fully reman'd 5r55n for my 2000 V8. As I'm taking the old one out I notice that my original has an eight stud torque converter and the replacement one comes with four studs.

This part:
is allowing unmetered air into my engine (I believe).
Is this the elbow to which many of you replace with YL8Z-6A614-AA?
"PCV Elbow" did not return useful threads. 2000 LS8

Great boards here and you've already helped me tons with my decision. Thank you to all.
