Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT owners report experiencing issues with shifting into reverse, accompanied by engine revving, which may indicate potential transmission problems. These concerns could stem from a malfunctioning transmission, and low transmission fluid levels have also been noted as a contributing factor to shifting difficulties. Additionally, misaligned throttle position sensors and malfunctioning shift solenoids might be involved in these issues.
