Re: [A/S] Airstream Pullers
I have been following the posts on pullers and have just returned from our
local Chevy dealer where I spoke to the service manager about the Duramax and
Allison. His early reviews are 1. Duramax no problems good engine. 2. Out of
10 vehicles equipped with the Allison, 2 needed to be replaced. Problems with
shift points that couldn't be reprogrammed properly, Of one of the two that
has been replaced, the owner still is not satisfied, the Allison Tech is
expected shortly to review. He said the transmissions are extremely large and
believes when they get the bugs squared away they will be the best thing
going. He was very candid about these things, maybe because it was 6am. we
were the only ones in the shop, or maybe his is just tired of replacing large
trannys. Any way take it for whatever it is worth.
