2003 Chevy Impala transmission

2003 Chevy Impala shifts hard and slips. Just had the transmission fully serviced 8 months ago. Took it to another transmission place last month and they found a code that they cleared but it's still slipping.

    Have you checked fluid level? And did first shop put in proper fluid for make of car? Odd shifting could be computer, slipping usually fluid or mechanical.

Did you have it serviced or rebuilt, If you had it rebuilt I would take it back to the trans shop for warranty repairs.
If they just changed the trans filter I don't think it would cause your problem.You just have bad luck with the slipping trans

Chevy impala 2005 3.4 engine. I have code P0753 it says 1-2 shift solenoid. will flushing transmission fix that problem. where are the shift solenoid on that car

code p0753 refers to shift solenoid(SS) A-electrical===causes--wiring--shift solenoid--ECM/TCM
The fault is electrical as it is a solenoid ( an object that has a coil wound around a core in which a bar of steel is magnetically moved when the coil is energized This bar movement moves valves or locks bands or clutches)
Change the solenoid and check out the transmission control module(TCM).
changing the oil will be good for the transmission but will not fix the electrical fault.

2003 chevy impala transmission slip went you start moving

Sounds like worn clutches, more than likely the transmission needs rebuilt or replaced.

Sometimes the transmission sets a "hard code" that causes a hard shift from 1-2. Stop by an Auto Parts store that has an OBD scanner and reset any codes. If that doesn't work, change the tranny fluid and filter and try SeaFoam additive.
Good Luck.

2003 chevy impala cuts out and shifts hard sometimes. Check engine light is not coming on. Could this be some kind of sensor going out?

Okay a few things to check first, with car off, turn key to on position but do not start, does the check engine light light up, failed bulb? run codes anyway, most chain auto stores will do for free, check transmission fluid it it dark, burnt smelling? how many miles ? when was transmission serviced if ever? did you check spark plugs are they worn out? fuel filter changed if over 50k miles could be blockage and resettles when sitting. lots of things could case this issue, i would check light and codes first.

I have 2003 chevy impala the transmission starts shifting hard after the car is up to operating temp.sometimes you can turn it off and start it again and it will stop that for a little while.

Have the vehicle scanned. If you have a code in the computer for maximum adapt/ long shift, replace the EPC pressure control solenoid. This a real common problem on the 4t65e transmission.
