I would of been posting about my 06 Saab 5.3 but I ended up getting a 99 blazer real cheap with 74k and it was pretty Much brand new, after a few months in the middle of the winter I realized we had a small coolant leak from the intake manifold on the coolant crossover and long story short I took it to the mechanic against my usual policy of diy and the head gasket blew. So then I was on the look for its newer form the GMT360's and found this 05 Envoy that had almost all options except g80, side curtain air bags, and nav.
Either way I wanted to make shure this truck lasted a while so the first thing we did was flush all the fluids
So I've done:
>Front & rear diff fluid
>Transfer case fluid
>Transmission Fluid flush, filter and both shift solenoids
>Engine oil (with 10w-30 by accident lol)
Power steering pump & fluid
>Air filter
>Spark plugs (acdelco 41-103) & coil boots
>Coolant and t stat
>Upstream O2 sensor
>All fluids were top brand synthetics
>replaced tire carrier
>cleaned front axle disconnect and replaced front actuator (now 4x4 works yay! )
Modifications:
>Replaced rear air springs with >Tahoe z71 springs
>Tahoe z71 Shocks
>Quad tail lights
>Quad headlights
>Plasti dipped rims, whole grille, mirror covers, and lower door trim >one led in the running lights lol
