"Honest diagnosis, fair price, and the repair was done right. Chicago Transmission has been my go-to for years. Wouldn't trust anyone else with my car."

"Family owned and it shows. They treated my car like it was their own. The lifetime warranty on my rebuild gives me total peace of mind. Highly recommend."
Yes — GMC and Chevrolet share the same transmission family. All repair procedures and pricing are identical.
Early 10-speed behavior was rough on both GM platforms. PCM updates help. If mechanical valve body wear is present, a rebuild resolves it.
Every 40,000–45,000 miles in normal use. Every 25,000 if towing.
The Sonnax sleeve is a permanent fix for the bore wear — not a temporary patch.
If the truck is clean and runs well, yes. Sierra 1500 frames last 300k+ miles. A rebuilt transmission with a lifetime warranty is the right investment.
Same-day appointments available. Honest estimates, no surprises. We've been doing this since 1987.
