What Does Your Chevrolet Trailblazer Transmission Do?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Chevrolet Trailblazer transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you ignore Chevrolet Trailblazer transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your Trailblazer’s not even driveable.

2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Chevrolet tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your Trailblazer towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Trailblazer is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Trailblazer's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Chevrolet Trailblazer’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Chevrolet. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Chevrolet Trailblazer leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Chevrolet Trailblazer can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Trailblazer ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Trailblazer to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
