From what I know there were many variations of that tranny for different vehicles over the years and some just sucked with inherent problems , Maybe a real professional shop could help or move on to something newer

If it’s slipping then you have no choice but replacement or rebuilding as the damage is already done.

This is typical GM. Time to move on. A friend had a similar problem with his Blazer. He spent (wasted) the money to have the transmission replaced. The truck ran great for about two days. Then the same thing happened. Slipping, jerking, check engine light on again with the same transmission codes. He wound up junking it and buying something else. He lost a few thousand dollars on that deal. Learn from his mistakes!! Replace the vehicle!! Jim

    My Tahoe was running in all gears earlier tonight, but now only 1 2 and 3 rd work. Had a hot trans smell. Will not gain speed past 50 mph. RPM's go up, but no speed.
