2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT Maintenance Schedule

You want your Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT to last as long as possible. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Trailblazer EXT. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get Trailblazer EXT maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT!

Chevrolet knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Trailblazer EXT running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and prevent common 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT problems.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Trailblazer EXT. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT? If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Trailblazer EXT may need a replacement battery sooner. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT engine. See Chevrolet's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2005 Trailblazer EXT in the chart at the top of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2005 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT.
