ok so, my buddy with an 08 ss/tc just blew 3rd grear doin no-lift shift...
he is stock as far as tune, but has, dejon sri, dejon upper pipe w/greddy bov, and a muffler performance wise...oh and a hyper single stage 3 clutch

his car is at the dealer and he is tryin to get it fixed under warrenty because the 08 trannies are problematic with no lift shift, so im wondering if anyone has a link or knows of a link n here with something related to 08 tranny issues??

thanks

 

is probly the reason behind it

 

reason why i only tryed nls once and dont plan it again. you gotta know how to do it or you could **** up

 

ok so he knows how lol does it all the time!!!

this will be his thrid new tranny!! he had the hyper single stage 3 clutch put in after the first time, and it just went out again with the better cluch on it....

 

to much grab? i really dont know but it seems that people who nls on upgraded clutches tear them up (some, not all).

 

3rd time?

He's doing something wrong

 

too much grab haha idk maybe

hes looking for a reason to get it covered under warrenty again tho

 

doin something wrong like nls?? he blew third doin a nls into 3rd...

 

i have an 08, i have a cm 6 puck clutch

no issues

but i never ever nls

 

yeah NLS is not a good idea modded... I never did it stock, our turbo is so small you don't drop a lot of boost or lag much anyway

 

Didnt ur buddy post on here? I think he did. Tell him to bite the bullet buy this Cobalt G5 2008, 2009 LNF 5 speed w/ LSD 55564936 - Crate Engine Depot

then send it to

Cryogenic Treatment, Cryo Treatment and Cryogenics

He will never have another problem again.

 

a puck clutch? yea, if you NLS i bet you your tranny will go.

 

not on the thread, but he might have put up a post after he got off work....

cool ill let him know, cause hes been savin anyway just incase he had to pay for it out of pocket..

 

This is the route i will be going in the spring. I'm getting my Tranny and Engine Cyro Frozen. Supposdly its supposed to increase the strength by 110% from all the articles i have read on it. And its fairly reasonable pricing. Much easier than doing a whole engine build with forged parts.

 

yea iv heard about it, sounds like a good idea, wondering about the long term tho...

 

They say it makes parts wear less and the longevity insane. On company did it on a 2001 Silverado, the tranny and engine. They have 300,000 miles on it and have yet to rebuild a tranny or any engine parts. Now thats some mileage on a truck

 

nice! might have to do this myself...

 

damn... that is pretty cheap on the transmission, for a 4-cylinder only $150(plus shipping both way)... i'm sure it'd cost around $300 for shipping both ways but still... around $500 is not bad at all

 

NLS'ing on an aftermarket clutch seems to be what is kiiling trannies. Theres no slip when all that tourque hits. Its alot harder on the car. Im at 22,000 miles and I NLS quite a bit, since the first day I got it.
Im going to look into the cryo thing though. Sounds good to me

 

keep us posted

 

so the dealer is putting a stock clutch on the car before the gm voucher comes to look at it, so they said he will most likely get his tranny covered under warrenty!

tight of them to do!!

 

Wow, yeah that is pretty cool of them to do that for him. Especially on the third tranny.
