#378 of 420 Rebuild by local guy vs factory rebuilt? by icojones Jul 28, 2009 (9:44 am)
I have an '02 LTZ that no longer has a third gear. I have the option of spending $2700+ for a factory rebuilt transmission from my local dealer or spending less than $2k for a rebuild at a franchised shop owned by a family friend. Chevy comes with 3 year warranty, franchise with 2 year. Car has 63k miles and is a station car that drives about 4-5k miles a year. Any strong opinions either way?   Much appreciated.

#380 of 420 2004 Trailblazer transmission with rust by donnak5472 Aug 06, 2009 (2:24 pm)
My 2004 Trailblazer transmission just decided it didn't want to shift out of 3rd last Saturday. It only had 66,000 miles on it. I just had it flushed at 60,000 and I take very good care of my vehicles. Mechanic found dip stick problem as stated in other postings here as well as signs of rust. He contacted GM and of course GM is aware of the problem but doesn't want to take responsibility for it! I can't afford new vehicle ( out of job) and i don't want to just patch it, so I'm getting it replaced and it comes with a 100,000 warranty. Costly, I know. But I can't afford for it to go again. So we bail out GM again! Did I say how much I dislike my vehicle? Crappy gas mileage, a/c that takes forever to cool. I will never buy another GM product!

Replying to: r3short (Aug 14, 2009 12:34 pm) To: r3short post 381 dated Aug 14, 2009. Your post title is Trailblazer SS 2008 then your message reads I have 20,000 miles on this one...May I ask you what "this one" means?, Are you talking about the Trailblazer SS 2008? If you are talking about the 2008 SS then it should be under warranty weather you bought it new or used, unless of course it has over 100,000 miles on it.

Replying to: r3short (Aug 14, 2009 12:34 pm) I have a 2004 trailblazer Lt..Had no problems until last mth with the slipping tranny... and like urs fluid is full. I even had it changed. My ck engine light came on so I took it to Advance Auto Parts store let them put the test machine that finds the code. Mine was a sensor, just like a friend told me These trucks have an electrical tranny and a sensor will make u think ur tranny is going bad. My truck pulls going from 2nd to 3rd..code stated solenoid b stuck on, which means the tranny is not downshifting when u slow down to stop. The sensor for solenoid b, is abt $18.00. Where is goes I still have to find out.. rather do that than buy another tranny
#384 of 420 2005 Trailblazer by aarongribbins Sep 02, 2009 (11:41 am)
My 05 Trailblazer started slipping/missing about 2 weeks ago. I purchased it about 2 years ago, and with never replacing the spark plugs since I bought it, I did just that hoping that the problem would cease. Unfortunately, the vehicle is still missing as before. I've got 113,000 miles on the vehicle and have had no major problems with the engine since purchasing the vehicle. I'm not at all ready to hear a mechanic tell me its my transmission, but does the missing usually point to the transmission going out?? As I'm driving down the interstate, I can feel the missing take place, but also watch my RPM Needle jump. It feels as if it's trying to keep up with my acceleration, but just can't quite get it. I appreciate any feedback.
#385 of 420 2003 Chevy Trailblazer stuck in one forward gear by bob421 Sep 02, 2009 (2:29 pm)
My 2003 TB seems like it is stuck in one forward gear (3rd?). Sounds like high RPM (not engine rpm) with low power. Problem started two months ago and disappeared for two months but is back again. Will manually shift into reverse but still has whirring rpm noise, even in neutral.
