6L80E valve body for 2010-Up, remanufactured and ready to install. Ships fast from the USA.
If a 6L80E-equipped truck or SUV from 2010 or newer is binding between gears, starting out in the wrong gear, or throwing a shift-pressure code, the fastest way to buy the right replacement valve body is to read the casting numbers off the unit that is already in the vehicle. This listing is a remanufactured 6L80E valve body built to match castings 0955 and 0945, the identification numbers GM stamped into the main body and separator plate on a large share of 2010-and-up production.
GM revised the 6L80E valve body more than once inside the 2010-and-up window, changing bore sizes, check-ball locations and the separator plate gasket pattern along the way. Two trucks built two years apart can carry different castings, and two trucks built the same year can also differ depending on the plant and build date. The casting number cast into the housing, not the vehicle's model year alone, is what actually determines whether a replacement valve body will bolt up and seal correctly, which is why this listing is built and sold against castings 0955 and 0945 specifically.
The valve body is the hydraulic control center of the transmission. It meters pump pressure through a field of precision bores and spool valves to apply the clutch packs and bands in sequence, and on the 6L80E it also houses the shift and pressure control solenoids the computer uses to time every shift. When the regulator and boost valve bores wear, the symptoms show up as harsh or soft shifts, slipping, bind-ups, wrong-gear starts and stored solenoid performance codes rather than a single obvious failure.
For a full breakdown of which code maps to which internal circuit, see our 6L80 valve body problems guide.
A worn pump can mimic valve body symptoms by starving the regulator circuit of consistent pressure, and tired solenoids can produce the same codes a worn valve body bore does. Our 6L80 pump failure guide and 6L80 shift solenoid guide cover how to test each one separately before you commit to a valve body replacement.
Pull the old valve body and read the casting number off the main housing and separator plate before ordering. If your numbers read 0955 or 0945, this unit is built to match. If they do not, send us your year, make, model and VIN, or a photo of the casting numbers, and we will point you to the correct listing on the 6L80 parts page instead of guessing from the model year alone.
Drain and drop the pan, disconnect the internal harness connector and manual valve link, and lower the valve body straight down so the check balls and accumulator springs stay in their bores. Fit a new seal and gasket kit at the same service, torque the bolts in GM's sequence, and refill with Dexron VI. Let the computer relearn shift adapts over the first several drives afterward rather than judging shift feel on the first trip.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Drop the pan and read the numbers cast into the main valve body housing and the separator plate. If they read 0955 or 0945, this listing matches. If not, send us a photo or your year, make, model and VIN and we will find the correct one.
GM revised the 6L80E valve body more than once within the 2010-and-up window, changing bore sizes and the separator plate pattern. The casting number stamped into the housing is what determines fit, not the model year by itself.
No, this is the valve body casting assembly, remanufactured and tested. If your solenoids are original and already worn, test them separately before assuming the valve body alone will clear the code.
Yes. Worn regulator or boost valve bores can produce intermittent solenoid performance codes without an obvious shift complaint. Our 6L80 valve body problems guide covers how each code maps to a specific circuit.
Dexron VI ATF. Change the fluid and filter at the same time you install the valve body so old debris does not circulate through the new unit.
