Ok, got the P0440 code on my son's Trailblazer. No other codes. Tried the easiest, gas cap. Cleared the code. Lasted about 1 day and is back. The code isn't very specific which stinks. Changed the vent solenoid, I happened to have one here from before. Same issue. What is next? Purge...

Sorry for the late reply. It turns out it was the hub. I replaced it and vibration is gone. Funny thing is that it didn't feel bad when spinning it. Obviously something was wrong. Pretty sure it was original so over 190K on that one.

Hi Guys, My son as a 2002 Trailblazer 4x4. We have a noticeable vibration from what feels like the left front. It sure feels like there is a lot of play in the CV shaft. I am not sure what is considered normal or if there should be no play. Both axles were replaced a few years ago with some...

I thought about cutting the tool down to use but then I read about the socket trick and while I didn't think that would work, I gave it a shot and to my surprise it worked well. I never thought it would hold pulling all of that torque but it did. Maybe I got lucky. But it is all back together...

I went and purchased a EN-46547 tool to hold the engine from turning to do the seal on my 2002 Trailblazer. I do not know if all years are the same, but that tool did not fit. So I do have one that is basically brand new other than a few scratches from being on the garage floor under the car I...

Anyone have one of these flywheel holding tools they would like to rent out for a couple of days?

Oh how fun. Another tool. Maybe this job isn't for me. lol. (I didn't start taking it off yet, just trying to get everything I need first)

How do you keep the engine from turning when trying to torque the balancer bolt down?

Thanks for the info. Yeah I have the first design so I need the tool

Does anyone have a nice used set of tools to pull and install a balancer on our 4.2 engines? I need to replace the front seal on my son's 2002 Trailblazer. I hate to buy new tools for something I will probably only ever use once. Thanks

Strange thing is after I parked it and came back out and started it again, all is well. It goes into all modes, etc. My guess is that the switch is starting to be a little flaky. I will keep an eye on it and maybe just order a new one as PM. Easy enough to replace that part. They say the...

Hello. I have a 2002 TB. This morning when I started it up I noticed that the light above the 2wd was blinking. No service light on or anything. If I change modes, the light above that mode just blinks. It does not appear to switch modes. I can not hear the actuator moving and it does not...

Is there a video or tutorial on checking the intake bolts? I cant even seem to see them on my 02 Trailblazer.

Hello Everyone, Looking to get a nice steering wheel cover for my son's 2002 Trailblazer. Just wondering what you all recommend. Prices seem to be pretty much from $10 to $40.

Yes take the belt off. As long as it has tension you probably will not notice if the pump is bad
