    The cluster board is notorious for screwing up. They don't just clean up either. I've owned three trailblazers and the 04's are the ones that had the issue.

    Unload it fast!! I had a 04 it was a bucket of problems. I would fix one problem another would pop up. I would go to my local junkyard there were about 30 to pick from. Mine had a power steering leak it was the lines they had a rust hole in one. Any questions email me ill help you if I can

    Have a 2006 envoy with same motor. Had issue using auto lite spark plugs. Engine blew a plug out and $600 later it ended up with ac plugs.

    I would ask $3500 for it. Looks OK on outside and runs down the road. I think that’s a fair price. Every market is different though. I live in IL and most 2004-5 model cars and trucks are rusted out. Looks like it could be a dependable low budget daily driver for awhile yet.

    An easy $3,000 bill all day long. Don’t recall if you sorted out the misfire. Sometimes cleaning the throttle body butterfly with solvent on a clean rag may help with the shuttering under load.

    The antenna cable is a two piece it’s not hard to change, and you don’t have to go farther in to the dash the the glove box. I actually just re connected it at the antenna itself, I don’t remember exactly how I did it now since the stroke.

    Nice little break from the Nomad...Damn,your luck is like mine some day's,you break a perfectly good part aka Radiator! I feel your pain!!
    As for price $3500 could be more or a little less but average $3500...Some are $3900 for roughly the same mileage and same body/interior condition,not perfect but not a total wreck either..Some are $2900 and beat to death! All depends on your area,that's what it comes to! Good Luck!

  • @lmcollins_54
    @lmcollins_54 2 года назад +1

    The oil gauge could have pegged due to the oil sending unit (high pressure). It should be in the back of the engine, towards the dash, but it is probably a real pain to remove and install a new one. Will your scanner unit allow you to manually access the gauges individually? If so, you can probably 😮activate/deactivate the sending unit and gauge. I think $4,000.00 is a reasonable price, plus you are including a brand new, driver’s side front, wheel hub assembly, right?

    The last one I bought in 2019 was $800 and I had to buy some tires for it. That was a 2002 LT. I’d still be driving it except I left it at my sons and he didn’t want it there

    I checked our car websites here and, although I didn't find a 2004, I found a 2002 and 2006 Trailblazers LT 4.2L.
    For the first one with 156,000 miles they're asking 13 grand!! And for the second one with 94,000 miles on it, 24 grand! 😂😂😂😂
