New A8
I brought my 2015 Stingray in to Bayside Chevy in So MD for heater repair. They called me next day to tell me they are replacing my A8 trans under warranty.. The car lurched when put in gear after cold start. Service Mngr Wayne and the mechanics, at Bayside have been taking excellent care of my C7. Great job guys..

Checked on car
Spoke with mechanic today. Ordered new trans. He told me that the 2015's had specific problems so GM will only let them replace trans in that model year. Last summer they did a fluid change and along with the Range devise that solved the problems but then about a month later the surge appeared. He also told me that 2 cars started acting up after the trans replacement, so they took them back in and replaced the computer module. I could have lived with the cod start surge since everything else was OK, but WTF I'll take a new trans.

1/2 the time its not the trans , dealers are quick to throw the parts cannon at problems instead of just diagnosing exactly what's wrong, Make sure that they clear the trans adapts and then do each shift "CLUTCH RELEARN" process and the GARAGE relearn
