'06 Tahoe Z71 slips out of drive, have to use 4wd

Hello, my Tahoe slipped out of drive omw home from work a ways back. It just started revving up and slowing down.

I put it in 4wd and regained forward motion. It's been like that since, except one time.

I had unhooked the battery for about an hour. My buddy had recommended this to me.

When I hooked it back up, I disengaged the 4wd and WOW! I was driving in rear wheel drive again!

Amazing, until about three quarters of a mile later when the engine started revving and the speed was dropping off again

Probably been like 3 months I've been in 4wd.

Any recommendations are appreciated.

Thank you Scotty!

Miles?  Has trans been serviced (fluid filter) in the past?


@hillbilly
It has about 183k, and I'm unfortunately not in the know if the fluid or filter have been replaced prior to my purchasing it.


@hillbilly
Also, in 2wd, it now drifts in park?


That amount of miles on that trans and knowing the trans, a rebuild will do you wonders. And the sooner, the better as less potential damage to case, etc. Assuming of course 180k on that trans... and don't change filter/fluid as 90%+ it will cause more problems,
