Thanks for the advice man.

I got the truck back last week and I am having one of the same issues, but not sure if it's a trans issue or a transfercase issue.

If any of you are from Michigan, you're fully aware of our "Michigan-lefts". Well, lets say the light is green, but I take it slow around the turn, feather the gas lightly and slowly apply the throttle coming our of the turn...the gear completely slips. But it's not like the RPMs jump....it's like the throttle doesn't even activate. I can put it to the floor and NOTHING happens. It's funny. It happens about 2/3 times and find it coincidental that it's usually when the AWD is active. *FYI: The brakes will do the same thing if taking a tight turn into a parking spot. What's that all about?

what year is it? And what exactly is it doing? is the RPM just not moving when u apply throttle? or does it move, and not go anywhere?

sounds electronic, Throttle Position Sensor, MAF sensor, Drive By Wire? you have to be specific what it is doing.

sounds like something wrong with your throttle. i'm guessing its drive by wire since cable should never have any problem like that even possible. there is a small control module mounted on the firewall. a friend of mine had to replace his on his tahoe. but he hardly has an oem part left on his entire truck. who knows.
