Seems I have been the lucky one to have our transmission go out in our 2016 Suburban. Been using AMSOIL ATL fluid since 5k miles and changed out filter and fluid again at 45k. Seems the issue is pointed to AFM causing issues with the TC and it trashing the fluid.
I just hope I caught it before it caused major damage. Shop that has been in business over 34 years here said they rebuild them all the time. Use upgraded VB and TC. Total out the door would be $3,600. Only problem is a three week wait.
To me when AFM is active, I can feel a small vibration and have been since new. This is on all the GM vehicles I have drove with AFM so it isn't just ours. I would think that the frequency harmonics come into play and trash over time. Just like any vibration can. That is my thought on this.
