My 4L60e exploded...
I lost all gears even reverse and neutral on my way home tonight. It started when it shifted into 2ed and then the transmission made some horrific noises with a bad vibration in the whole drive train. I drove it for about two miles in third gear then everything just locked up, I can't even put my truck into neutral and push it. I checked the rear end just to make sure it was not that, the whole gear train in my trans just exploded. Sorry for the long post I really just wanted to vent and share my experince on what happen to me tonight.

I don't think it will be covered by warrenty because I have almost 60,000 miles on it, and I don't have the extended warrenty. I'm pretty sure that my very hard 1-2 shift is what blew up my trans, I never did get a good tune after I installed the shift kit and servro . I think I'm going to give FLT a call in the morning and see about a Level 4.

The same exact thing happened to me... except there wasn't any noise stopped at a light and it wouldn't move... still don't know what caused it though... I'm thinking it was due to a nelson tune though it was running perfectly fine until I put the updated tune in... I'm thinking they bumped the line pressure on it...
