Try putting it on the computer. Mine did the same thing and we had to replace both TCC soleniods. This requires tearing back into the trans.

Help with Transmission by biglar25

I purchased my 02 Trailblazer w/79000 miles 2 months ago and all of a sudden while I was driving the "service engine soon" light came on so I decided to go to autozone and get it checked out and the diagnostic code states that it's the 1-2 shift solenoid valve performance. The car is perfectly driving normal and is starting normal and it seems like nothing is really wrong the car. So I decided to take the car to the transmission shop and they informed me that they would have to take the whole transmission out and take it apart to fix it which will be anywhere from $500-$1,800. So I decided to wait until I get some feedback to what I should do. I am so upset because I just purchased this TB 2 months ago and this happens. I don't have a warranty because I didn;t purchase the extended warranty. Can anybody tell me what should I do?

2003 Trailblazer/Transmission Problems??? by ticadoo

I have a 2003 Chevrolet Trailblazer, LT, extended, that I bought in 2/08, with 60,000 miles on it, and have had nothing but PROBLEMS with it. It had a 3 month, 3,000 mile warranty, BUT it was in and out of the shop for weeks at a time less than a week after I purchased it.
 
Now, the transmission sounds like it is having a hard time shifting gears. Even though it was May before I got my vehicle back from the dealer/shop, they won't even consider having the transmission looked at, much less pay for it. I would really appreciate any suggestions/comments Thanks

Well, I'm sorry to say that all of us that have experienced this problem has had to have our transmission rebuilt. I have a 2002 which I bought with 8 miles on it, which is in the shop right now getting redone. Apparently there is some part, called the sunshell, that is a really weak piece of crap. Which tends to break. I haven't heard anything from the garage that I took mine to last week, but they were not surprised. But since you have so much problems with yours I would really recommend that you give your dealership a good tongue lashing. Since they have had it so much out of the 3 months that you have had it. It really is up to them, but GM does give each dealership so much money a year, from what I hear, for this goodwill assistance program. But it is totally up to the dealership. If you have no luck there I would highly recommend you talking to a lawyer. Sorry to say. I wish you luck. I'll let everyone know what the garage says. Due to get mine back anyday now.

I was wondering if you could tell me how to find out what transmission I have in my 02 Trailblazer? I guess I am trying to learn if my transmission is one day going to quit on me. I have about 16,000 miles on the Trailblazer (yes the mileage is correct).
 
I have taken my truck into dealership while under warranty due to my experiencing revving engine (high rpm) at start-up (hot or cold) then after about two blocks or so driving (very little power) the transmission then shifts and the truck runs normal. The dealership said they could not find the problem even after they sent me off twice with a box hooked up which was supposed to record the problem as I pushed buttons in sequences when the problem was happening. Dealership said both times that nothing was showing recorded on this box and they could not help me. Naturally now Aug 2008 I am out of warranty but the problem still happens intermittently. I appreciate your help and thanks for the post.

I have an 03 TB with some type of shifting problem. It seems be starting off in second gear. From second gear and up it shifts fine.I put it in a low gear and it got stuck there for a while. Shifting to reverse is kind of harsh. Some one tell me what is going on

Don't do it, I have a 2006 Chevy Trailblazer and I just started having problems with my transmission. It shifts but jerks real hard when it does. Normally it does'nt start the jerking until I have driven it for a while. It's like once it warms up it starts jerking when pulling out from a stop sign, red light etc; We called the dealership yesterday eveing to see if we could disconnect the battery thinking it could be electronic. We were told it wouldn't hurt anything but he didn't think that would do any good. The warranty is up, he said to bring it in and they would put it on the diagnostic machine. My husband ask if they had a lot of trouble with the transmissions in these vehicles and with no straight answer he said they have had some. He also ask if we bought the vehicle from their dealership. My question is, if this is an on going issue with the Chevy Trailblazer can there not be a class action suit or a recall on this transmission they continue to install in the Chevy's? Thanks Gator Mom
