6 speed rear tranny seal
Have any of you 6 speed owners had the rear tranny seal replaced yet? If you did how long did it take for the seal to come in and if you have the work order can you PM me the seal part number? The dealer here has been trying to get the seal since Thursday and I'm being told the parts dept doesn't show a part number for it and they are waiting on the parts gods to call them back. Can this seal be anydifferent than th one used when these trannys were in the Camaros???
just got off phone with the gm section that helps when you cant find a part # there is a part # in the catalog so I started with them because the # is no good to order they said it is a good # but not set up correctly surprize surprize to call s.p.a.c. tell them it is a good # per par tech if there is any problem ask to speak to a team leader --now --dont wait for them to call back your dealer should know to do all of this I dont know if somebody is explaining it wrong to you or they really dont know I hope thats not the case hope this helps some -frank

Thanks Frank.....I've called my son's friends father who works as a mechanic at another dealer in the valley. He's going to look into this in the A.M. IF he comes up with a good part # I'm telling the dealer I'm working with to give me my trade in back and keep your SSR. I'll sell my Vette and get a SC truck. The more this goes on the more somehting is tellling me that this just wasn't meant to be....even if it it the first 06 speed off the line!

CTS-V perhaps? The CTS-V has the LS2 and uses the same 6-speed as used in the SSR (different 1st gear). There was a thread on that a week or 2 ago. I can't imagine that stingy GM would change anything at all if they could get away with it.
