4L80E Silverado Tranny
2001 Silverado 2500 4L80E transmission. Transmission oil cooler line broke at the cooler by the radiator. Repaired the cooler fitting added the Lost fluid and used the vehicle for about 300 miles. And then one day it would not go in gear forward or back. On occasion now I am able to move the vehicle around to get it out of the way and want to take it for a test drive. The shops are saying rebuild. I want to pull the pan and see what it looks like, Maybe flush. Maybe check for a faulty shift solenoid/valves? What say you? Thanks. Dale

Only you know the condition of the remainder of the truck and your financial position. I would not fix the transmission if I coudn't sell the truck for the cost of fixing the transmission. Fixing a auto transmission is not a DIY project for most folks, including me. If you can still drive it, get it to a repair shop before you have to also pay for a wrecker if that's the route you go. Good luck.
