My 2005 GMC Envoy has 171,000+ miles on it. After running for about 15min or so, when I'm at idle at a redlight my oil pressure drops, but if I put it in neutral and rev the engine it goes back up. I checked the oil level while warm and it was good. Most of my parts are in good shape as I've...

The front differential on my 2003 Bravada went out. I had brought to local mechanic who ive went to before. After 3 weeks or so I got a phone call yesterday. The mechanic said that its finished. I went and paid for it, $1200 for diff and labor. Pulling out of mechanics parking lot about 1/4 mile...

Do I need to drain the oil in order to change the oil pressure switch? I'm thinking yes, but I want to make sure.

Hi, I am new to this site and thought that I would try asking you folks. Recently, my 2006 Trailblazer was making an odd somewhat nocking noise as I was driving home from work. Shortly after the noise began, the oil pressure went to zero and the engine seized up or shut down. I had it towed...

Bought my 06 trail blazed from auction about a year ago with 167000 miles. Right off the bat I had an oil pressure problem. Change oil and filter with mobile 1 syntactic this helped keep pressure up for the most part; but it always takes a few seconds for the needle to pop up and the lifters to...

A year ago I replaced the cooling fan clutch and fan as well as the radiator in my 2002 Trailblazer. I've recently started having the same problems with the vehicle as I had a year ago. The problems are: when idling at a stop light, in traffic, etc, car begins to run hot and the oil pressure...

So for the last few months, I have been driving my wifes car to work (80 miles round trip) and she has been taking the Envoy XUV (10 miles round trip). I miss the Envoy, but not the money I was spending on gas! Recently, I changed the oil prior to driving to Florida for vacation. During the...

I have been reading threads for hours and I think I am more confused than ever! LOL I know there has been alot of posts about the oil pressure dropping to 0 when a car idles and I have read all the responses about the oil sending unit. I also read that cars with a light have an oil pressure...

Hello all. I am so glad I found this site. Having and issue with oil pressure. Yesterday it was reading between 60-80 and now it is just buried in the 80 mark. Even when the engine is off it reads 80 psi. I know that there is no pressure when the motor is off so it must be the guage. I...
