Hi, I have a 2007 Silverado 1500 LT, I have haveing ALL the SAME issues you have described. I have my truck at the dealership and they are having problems diagnoising it. Since this only happens intermittently they have not "experienced" the problem. Have you had any luck with figuring the problem out.
The new (2009 thru 2011) transmission issues must be widespread. When you log into the "Sierra 1500" forum, look what's listed at the top; "Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra Transmission Problems." It's been the number two or three topic for a while now with over 1850 posts. I know some are redundant, but no other topic is close for this truck.
We have had the same issues on our 2009 silverado. GM's customer service was unwilling to work with us :-( so we sent a letter in hopes that they will admit that the parts are junk!!!.

I had the same problem with my 2007 1500-Classic. It felt like someone hit me in the rear everytime I stopped or it hit hard when shifting from 1-2nd gear. Brought it in at 36k and they greased the the yoke splines. This is just a band-aid to the real problem. I brought it in last week at 76k and they were aware of the problem and have to replace the ... Read More
I paid $39k for an '09 Silverado 2500HD Crew Cab, long wheel base 2WD, Duramax, LT1 with all the usual goodies. It has the towing packages, 17" all terrain tires, aluminum wheels, Bluetooth, etc. The price was after a $3,500 rebate back in early July.
That is $39k with the 0percent financing. After doing the math and calculating the interest, it seemed that I would be saving with the 0 percent vs. taking the rebates over the life of the loan. I am new to this and only bought one other car. In which case, I did everything that I was not suppose to do and got hosed.
Is that $39k before rebates? If so, that's a bit over 10%, which is excellent. If it's after rebates, not good. The rebates are anywhere between $3500 and $5k. If it's $39k then rebates and some GM point or the topoff you're at $10k+ off. I'm still annoyied about not getting the topoff. I don't qualify for it because I have $5K+ in points. So I have a lower redemption allowance ... Read More

Options include: 6.0L Engine, 6speed Trans, Max Trailer Package, Exterior Plus, Safety Package, Interior Plus, Trailer Brake, Bose, and Dual automatic seats. Working with the Dealer for 2 weeks and they are offering $39K out the door (tax rate is 8.75% plus 1500 license). Is this a good deal? Your thoughts?

Try this link: http://www.gmc.com/sierra/1500/specsCapabilities.jsp Here's the link for the Silverado: http://www.chevrolet.com/assets/pdf/owners/manuals/2009/2009_chevrolet_silverado- _owners.pdf
My quote on the above truck is MSRP - $36,320 Price - $*28,767 that looks nice to me before even talking to them. How much lower do you think they can go? I really want to get the best deal possible (who doesn't) this is in Wisconsin. Anybody eles purchased a Silverado recently and willing to share their price?

The fun varies, from camping to dirt-bike riding to water-skiing. But the vehicle that invariably gets tasked with hauling the corresponding equipment is a full-size pickup truck. You know, like the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2009 Dodge Ram 1500, 2009 Ford F-150 or 2009 Toyota Tundra. 2009 Full-Size Pickup Truck Comparison Test
I am in Arlington Texas and went to Vandergriff Chevy to find a new truck. The first one I looked at I fell in love, it was a silver 2009 silverado 1500 crew cab texas edition. I saw the sticker and almost passed out. It has the cloth interior and the 5.7 litre with the flex fuel option. Overall a bad azz looking truck, chrome door handles, mirrors, wheels, gauge covers ...
