Code PO 495 - Fan clutch.
My 2002 Trailblazer sounds like a jet engine when driving. It is "sluggish" to go when first driving. AutoZone ran a diagnostic - PO 495 which I understand is a fan clutch. The car has less than 80K miles. I further understand this repair is costly, probably greater than $600.
The check engine light came on a few days ago and I hope it will run a few days while I call around for repairs.
How can we pass all of these comments on the Chevy?
I had the same problem with my 2002 trailblazer. It was the fan clutch. The dealership wanted to charge 750.00 to replace it. We called around auto parts stores and got it for about 150.00 and my husband fixed it himself. We just bought a Haynes repair manual for the trailblazer and it was fixed in a couple of hours and saved us a whole heck of a lot of money.
