Transmission Issue!!!
I have a 2008 base corvette with the 6l80e that i just changed the fluid in. When i drive it when its cold (90 degrees- 190 degrees) shifts through all the gears fine but undying hotter than 190 it won't shift into first. It through a p0751 code (solenoid A is off) and i can't find a new solenoid anywhere, or where it is located! Can someone please help me with the issue.

The first question to be asked is: Do you know and did you follow the correct procedure when changing and filling the fluid?
Next question: Did you change the filter?
Next: Did you replace the filter seal?
I have a gut feeling, but your answers might make me change my mind.

While you're at it, did the filter get fully inserted to the point it "popped" securely into place?

The A6 fluid/filter change is not just a drain n refill procedure like most are used to doing.
I let a certified Tech do mine as it's such a pain to do without a lift.
