The vehicle is now at the dealer for the second time regarding transmission shifting issues. First visit I was told they can find nothing wrong despite my experiencing transmission slipping, loud clanking on shifting, and severe jolting when shifting. While having a travel trailer hitched to the truck after the first visit, I experienced all the same issues with the addition of transmission overheating warnings on the dashboard and near complete stoppage of the vehicle at highway speed. The same dealer now says the transmission "valve body" is defective and is being ordered. Due to Towing a trailer with this truck (much lighter than rated capacity) I have the transmission fluid changed on nearly every oil change. The Transmission filter has been changed on the recommendation of my mechanic, strictly due to quantity of fluid changes.

The vehicle began making a loud fan noise in the engine after the summer began (06/2025) and the temperature gauge was elevated but not by a concerning amount. After an oil change (06/21/25) we were told that it was normal because of the weather. A week after the check engine light was coming on intermediately (began 06/28/2025) depending on the day and the temperature outside (we are currently in the middle of a heat wave). The vehicle was taken to the dealership (07/02/2025) where they determined that the coolant flow was too low and found that the engine coolant pump is faulty and needs to be replaced. f the coolant is low in a Chevy Silverado and the engine overheats, it can lead to significant and potentially expensive engine such as a blown head gasket, cracked engine block, or even a complete engine failure or fire.

2023 Silverado 1500 3.0 Duramax. Transmission failure and engine overheating at 5k miles. I was towing a trailer when the 1st transmission failure occurred. The engine shut off, and said shift to N to start while coasting with loss of power braking. I was able to get started but transmission would slip when shifting above 1st gear. I had to tow to the nearest level point to safely park the vehicle, for fear of rolling backwards down 8% grade. At that point the computer was showing engine overheat loss of power warnings. GM roadside assistance towed to nearest dealer, refilled transmission with fluid, and put me back on the road for it to fail again in traffic (loss of power / unable to move). I have now been without vehicle going on 30 days and worry there is more wrong with the vehicle than just a blown transmission (latest GM diagnosis with no repair eta). For a few hours prior to failure I noticed what seemed like the transmission hunting for gears at lower speeds (0-25) with hesitation. Could have been slipping. And also noticed strange / louder than usual turbo noises. I worry the system is generating too much pressure or has mixed oil with coolant somewhere, based on finding atf, coolant, and engine oil near the overflow and all over the bottom of the vehicle. GM support has been atrocious and someone should step in.
