Not to rub salt into a wound but my 2015 M7 has been problem free with 13k miles on it. However my 2016 Sierra with the A8 clunks into gear at certain speeds and is progressively getting worse with 7k miles on it. Keeping the Vette for now, not sure about the Sierra...

I’m really considering just trading it in for an M4 after keeping track of all of these TC problems.
Triple flush is the cop out, deny, and save us money by hopefully getting past your warranty date. You will need a torque converter.

An F150 with a 10spd auto sure looks good about now!

I had the torque converter in my C7 replaced and I am still having shuddering and slipping with the cruise set. Good luck!
What did you do to stop the shudder? What happens if the TC doesn't fix it.

Looking at the disassembly pics scared me. I bought and installed the Range AFM eliminator. I have 1 year left on 5 year powertrain warranty to decide if I want my car torn into.
