I have a 01 GMC 2500HD with the D/M and Allison auto currently in the shop getting the injectors replaced. While its in there I want them to take a look at a couple other areas I have a concern with. Every once in awhile, after stopping at a light or stopsign, when going to accelerate the trans does not immeadetly go into gear. It takes a second.. like it slips then bangs into gear. Only does it about once a month or so... Also, this truck cant get out of its own way in 2 wheel drive in the snow. Heck I can even get stuck in 4x4 in snow. It has the firestone steeltexs on it. Ive been advised by a few others to try different tires and I will be doing that soon. Is there any advice or bulletins I can pass on to the service writer to the dealer where my truck is. The truck has 73,000 miles and has never been into the dealer for any other repairs. The VIN # is 1GTHK24161E268485. Thanks for all the info from all the other members. Thanks Dan

I think I found the TSB I was looking for. #02-07-30-020 Im going to have them reprogram the TCM with the lastest info. This sound about right? Thanks Dan

Try some different tires and make sure your calibrations are currrent.
