I have a 2015 with the dreaded 8L90-E GM slush box. It's a piece of junk that only gets worse with age. Is there a way to actually fix this thing? I wouldn't mind upgrading some of the internal parts if I could make function like it should. I don't want to put stock parts back in. They didn't do so well the first time. What have others done?

Do you have the new fluid?

The new fluid stopped the "rumble strip" shudder. It still has another condition that I would call a shudder. It still has delayed engagement, stumbling, etc.

Yes, with new parts, new converter, the new fluid and a good transmission tune they work really well.

What converter/kit do you recommend? I'm not putting the OEM trash in it so it can break again.but i
