How many miles can I go before the 4L30-E transmission needs over hauled?
I've got ~128,000 miles on it and I've changed the fluid every 40,000 miles. It occasionally (about twice a year) shifts hard going from 3rd to 4th gear.

After reading your thread title, I thought to myself "130,000 miles".
I have no personal experience with that tranny though.

I was once told by a transmission guy that the 4L30E can last a long time if given regular fluid changes. Of course, YMMV...
