How do you add transmission fluid 2003 trailblazer?

You add fluid at the same place you check it. If there is no place the check the fluid level it is a sealed transmission. It can be checked but I hesitate to post the procedure here. Do it incorrectly and you can damage the transmission. Unless you see an obvious leak, then just have it serviced as outlined in your owner's manual.

Not really unless your doing it at 20 mph. It is somewhat hard on the U-joints, however.


What can you do to get your car stuck out of park?

Transmission cable that runs to your transmission is either broken or the link has came apart. Replace the cable and/or transmission and make sure if you have an automatic, to press down on the brake pedal before shifting out of park, most cars from 1960- 2010 have a lock-out feature so you cannot shift in or out of the Park position unless you are pressing the brake pedal.

You might want to check your transmission fluid, with your engine running, open the hood, find the transmission "dipstick" pull it out and check tel level of fluid on it. If the level is normal, then you should go to your garage mechanic, not the dealership(unless still under warrenty).


How do you drive manual transmission?

A car with manual transmission has 3 pedals: the accelerator, the brake, and the clutch. In addition to alternating your right foot between the brake and the accelerator, like you do in a vehicle with an automatic transmission, you place your left foot on the clutch (the pedal farthest to the left.) In order to get the car moving, you must shift the car into first gear. Press onto the clutch, and slowly release it as you press down on the accelerator. If the timing is not exactly right, the car will stall; getting the hang of this is the most frustrating part of the learning process. Once the car is moving, there is no danger of stalling unless you're using the brake; however, you still need to use the clutch in shifting gears. Each gear represents a different speed- for example, 2nd gear is typically used when driving between 20 and 30 mph. There is no "right" answer for which gear to use, but paying attention to the car's behavior helps. You can usually tell that it's time to shift to a higher gear if the engine is making too much noise, and that it's time to downshift if the car is moving too sluggishly. Learning to drive a car with a manual transmission is complicated and takes a lot of practice, but it's certainly worth it.
