If you want to know how to reset the oil life reminder on your new Chevy TrailBlazer, just going to use the steering wheel buttons. So let’s see how it’s done.
For your info, this operation work for the Chevy TrailBlazer SUV or Crossover model (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2021, 2022, and 2023 model years).
Let’s speak about engine oil. Your car can’t function without oil. It helps to maintain your engine well-lubricated and free of debris. How about this? A lot may go wrong if you don’t take care of its oil. It’s all wrong. Metal-on-metal friction may reach so intense that your engine can fuse itself if you run out of oil.
Alternatively, suppose you have oil in your engine but never replace it. Over time, one of two things may transpire. Oil may thicken and become abrasive if dirt is allowed to accumulate. This can lead to engine damage and final failure. Oil may lose its lubricating properties when the good stuff (detergents, rust-fighters, and friction reducers) breaks down. In addition, this might lead to engine failure.
The bottom truth is that your engine needs frequent oil and filter replacements. Several variables determine the frequency. For example, the kind of oil you use, your driving habits and circumstances, and your vehicle’s age. As a result, check your oil often and replace it as necessary. It’s more than just a way to prevent significant engine damage. It may also provide you with a slew of positive outcomes. Things like better fuel efficiency, quieter engines, and longer engine lifespans come to mind.
In the Trailblazer, 5W-30 is the oil type that is used. It is possible to use SYNTEC Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30 and Mobil Super Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-30.
The engine oil capacity for the 2021 Trailblazer with 1.2L engines is about 4.2 quarts and is about 4.8 quarts for models with 1.3L engines.
The Chevy TrailBlazer utilizes Dextron III transmission fluid.
So there you go, that’s it reasonably easy. If you have a Chevy product and that oil light was on is annoying you, you can utilize these easy steps to reset it. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to me. So thanks for reading and bye!
