The issue is everybody keeps adding horsepower to their cars and the 5.3 is pretty much already putting out with a 4 L 60 can handle. If you're going to add a Turbocharger to it then that's what you get. When you leave them alone they work just fine.

The transmission went out in my brother’s 4x4 Silverado at 103,000 miles. Neither GM, the dealer where he purchased the truck or extended warranty company (purchased 100k extended warranty) would repair the truck. They wanted just over $8,000 to repair or replace the transmission. My brother sold the truck and went back to buying Dodges. That was his first and only Chevrolet. Transmission had a whining noise.

[@Thundarr995]

That's why I'd never buy an extended warranty ever again. Back in 2000,I bought a 95 Chevy S-10 4cyl. The head cracked,or it was cracked when I bought it about a week prior. I took it back, and they said they fixed it. I marked the head with blue paint before I brought it back. All they did was dump stop leak in it. I drove it for a couple of weeks,and I found the crack & it was leaking into the #3 spark plug hole,causing a random misfire. Brought it back down there. This time, they replaced the head, but they had the freaking detail shop replace it and didn't tell me. I was pissed when I found out,but I needed the truck to get to work. They assured me that it was done correctly, but they didn't. They had the spark plug wires mixed up. Believe it or not, the 94 & newer Chevy/Isuzu 2.2L will run just fine with the spark plug wires mixed up because it fires on both the intake and exhaust stroke,but it won't get out of its own way if they're mixed up. I figured that out about a month later when I gave it a tune-up. I will never buy an extended warranty ever again. You're better off just saving the money you would have spent on the extended warranty just in case you break down. They always come up with some damn reason(s) why they won't cover it. They're a waste of money and a false sense of security.

[@ashes2ashes863]

That's cool. He will get to replace a bunch of electronics at 32,000 miles instead, and then the transmission at 60,000. Trust me, today's Dodge ain't a 318 Mopar with a 727 my friend.

@@ashes2ashes863 You are correct. Except I don’t trust any manufacturer these days. Even if they want to genuinely make a good vehicle and not cheap out it’s gonna be screwed over by emissions bs.
