I also have a Traction Active sensor that comes on on acc from a stop. Bad wheel bearing? Last but not least, "service tire monitor system" message comes over dash display! It does not show me actual tire pressure in display.
Any help will be appricieated
Thanks Andy

I have found with my 4L60 e transmissions the use of synthetic fluid either dexronVI or mobil synthetic trans fluid speeds up this delay in shifting..
dexronIII is no longer used by gm..you vehicle has dexronIII in it when it was built. 2005-6 gm dumped dexron III...cost gm tooo much !
you tow heavy load therfore you must replace transmission fluid every year, especially if you operate with temps above 80-90 deg f.
drop pan clean inspect filter and if filter dirty replace..
dirty fluid, damaged fluid wears the trans, and reduces fluid pressures.
slippage results !
