Driving your Trailblazer around Houston can put a lot of miles on your engine. Luckily for you, we help you at every interval. We recommend that you make an appointment for an inspection of your engine air filter and brake pads after putting on the first 7,500 miles on the odometer. This visit also allows us to change your oil, swap filters, flush fluids, and rotate your tires. At the 22,500-mile mark, our technicians will perform the same tasks and replace your cabin filter. When you put 30,000 miles on your Trailblazer, we recommend that you come in for another full inspection and tire rotation. You generally want to schedule maintenance for your car every 7,500 miles.

FAQs for Trailblazer Service

What Type of Oil Does a Trailblazer Use?

The best oil for a Chevy Trailblazer is 5W-30. With this type of oil, you can go up to 10,000 miles before you need another oil change. We have this synthetic oil in stock and ready for your next oil change.

How Often Do You Need to Change Your Oil?

It wasn't that long ago that car brands claimed you needed to change your oil every 3,000 miles. We now know that most cars will go a lot longer between oil changes. Your Trailblazer can go between 7,500 and 10,000 miles before you need to change its oil. We usually recommend the 7,500 mark for those who drive older models.

Should You Lubricate Your Doors?

During your service appointment, our team can lubricate the doors of your Trailblazer. This item is a simple task that comes in handy. It ensures that the doors open and close smoothly and keeps the seals secure.

Does a High-Mileage Trailblazer Need More Maintenance?

When you drive your Trailblazer around Houston for work or fun, you can put more miles on the engine than you expected. High-mileage cars often need a little more maintenance, which is why we encourage you to make a service appointment every time you put another 7,500 miles on the car's odometer. Once you have a Trailblazer with 100,000 miles or more, we will rotate the tires and replace your wipers. We also inspect the parking brake and starter switch to make sure both work properly. When you make an appointment with us, we ask how many miles are on your Trailblazer to make sure you get all of the services you need.

When Should You Replace the Trailblazer's Air Filter?

A Trailblazer that has trouble turning over and makes strange noises on the highway may have a bad or dirty air filter. You usually need to replace your air filter when you hit 15,000 miles, but some models can go for up to 30,000 miles before you need to change it for a new one. Our Chevrolet service team in PEARLAND can change the filter during your appointment.
