Cold Weather Tranny Codes
It has been about 2 years on the new tranny and this is the coldest it's been in that time so to say this problem didn't exist from the beginning may not be telling the truth.- DirtyMatt

Cold Weather Tranny Codes
Do you think that with a problem with the internal filter I would see issues at different times other than when it is really cold? We are finally come out of this cold spell this weekend and gonna be over 40° on Monday. I will get it up to proper temp then for sure.- DirtyMatt

Cold Weather Tranny Codes
So I had a partial quart of fluid that I added to the tranny....about 0.75qt. Was still getting the light. For the last two days I sat in the truck as it warmed up to get an idea when the CES light was exactly coming on and discovered something interesting. Prior to this morning, I noticed...- DirtyMatt

Cold Weather Tranny Codes
That is what I have always done, but have been limited with these friggin arctic temps :cold: I was going to add some, but was hesitant to "eyeball it" not knowing what it was when hot. Based on what I said above, any recommendations on how much to add? I was gonna start with half a quart...- DirtyMatt

Cold Weather Tranny Codes
The fluid level looks good. That was the first thing I checked as well. ....I guess I should be more clear. I have checked the fluid several times, but with ambient temps in the -20 to 10°F, the warmest I can get the tranny is 120-130°F. At this temperature, the level shows up in the "cold...- DirtyMatt

Cold Weather Tranny Codes
I have been racking my brain on an issue I endure with my truck when it gets cold lately. When the temps get to 8°F or lower I get a CES light and the truck will go into limp mode without Reverse....no other message in the DIC. The truck is plugged in overnight and starts easily. The CES...- DirtyMatt

6 Speed Issues--Slipping or Electrical????
I had some reservations in the beginning and asked them if they were comfortable looking at it. They aren't new to Allison work, but aren't a "performance shop" either. What do you guys think? Get it to the dealer, find someone more knowledgeable with the Allison or other? Just the first...- DirtyMatt

6 Speed Issues--Slipping or Electrical????
I have a 07.5 LMM with about 40K miles on it. I have run a PPE Xcelerator on it since it was practically new. NEVER have I even tried a level above 4! Most of the time I left it on Level 3. When towing, it would turn it back to stock and since the exhaust was replaced, to Level 1. I don't...- DirtyMatt
