  • Not going into OD once warmed up

    Noticed this the last two times driving. Going to work in the dead heat of the afternoon. It'll do its job until she's good n hot. Then when I take off and cruise up to where 4th should engage, it doesnt. I wanna say it's a 4L80e trans. No slipping or hard shifting. Doesn't lead me to believe a rebuild is in order. Just won't engage OD. I assume it's electronic. Fluid is at correct level. Engine temp never goes past the half way hash mark.

    Driving her home yesterday morning I don't recall it doing it. So it's obviously temp related. Anyone experience this? If so what's the common fix?

    The radiator used in the K2500 in absolute shit, probably not cooling the fluid enough. Might try an aftermarket transmission cooler.
