2-3 Shift Flare on 6L80E - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Mine has the 2-3 flare since I bought it with 7000 miles. Currently 32000. It only shows up when cold tho. Recently have a second delay going into drive. This past summer I changed fluid and filter and carefully got correct fluid levels according to service manual. This has help some but I’m like you, I think I I’ll just drive it until it blows then rebuild later.

Online research says there are some common causes, including “lazy shift solenoid, to crack weld in clutch pack basket”.

Good luck on yours! Thanks for the reply.

I would add in the extra 3/4 quart of fluid. I had seen other mentions on Camaro5 and other forums recommend it but I didn't do it until I saw that Circle D transmissions had it in their manual.
