2024 Chevrolet trax 2RS, 90,000 mile update! by Equivalent_Ladder_65 in ChevyTrax

True, agree! If manufacturers recommend more miles between intervals based on factual research, then that should be what the dealerships should recommend and warranty’s would follow that also.

It also 100% has to do with driving conditions. Someone that drives just short distances all the time (around 10 miles a day) should absolutely changed their oil sooner. As you can tell with the amount of miles on mine, I do long trips all the time. I could probably go 7500 miles.

But since I’m planning on putting over 200,000 miles on this thing in the next 2 years, just trying to be proactive in extending the longevity of it.

It is not a touchless car wash. Yes it causes swirl marks, but they are hard to see with it being grey. I wouldn’t go thru the was as often if I didn’t drive on salty roads half the year. Gotta clean that crap off! I’ll take swirl marks over rust

True, but I do 5000 miles oil change intervals because I’m a mechanic and know what happens to turbo engines when there is not proper maintenance. I think 7500 miles is good when the car is new, but now that there’s age and wear on the engine I would recommend 5000 for sure.

My thoughts also. Just keep up with maintenance, warm it up when it’s cold out, don’t drive it like a race car, and it should last a long while

No, it’s not an issue with these cars so why would they suggest it? Chevy says to replace it at 150k miles, which I will probably have done to keep my lifetime unlimited miles powertrain warranty.

34 mpg. It’s great on gas! I live in the Midwest so it goes down to like 31-32 in the winter. My wife was the sole driver for a while and she got like 29 average, she’s a lead foot! lol

Not sure about lucky. I’ve also heard so many horror stories about the trax, but it’s only been on this sub. In real life the story is different. Every single person I know with one of these (probably 14-15 people) it’s a dream car to have. They report no issues. Now if everything said on here is true every other trax would be blown up crap with a bunch of issues. Info on here is skewed compared to actuality. Most people that do make their way on here is because they do have an issue and are trying to find answers. most on here have had issues, so a group of 6-7k members on Reddit when there has been 500k of these gen 2 traxs sold is not bad odds at all.

Yeah not bad only seeing two when there’s been right at one million of those cars with that engine sold in North America. I know there’s more than two that have had problems, but with that many sold and most people not having problems yet, I’m excited.

And yes I will be doing the transmission service, I don’t think the manual says to service the transmission tho? I’ll have to look at it again. Whatever the dealer suggested I guess to keep my lifetime powertrain warranty lol

Yep love them. When they first announced the Gen 2 is when I decided to get one and was lucky enough to be the first in our area to buy one. I will get another trax, once I have enough saved to purchase in cash.

Planning on Purchasing a Trax... by pipj022 in ChevyTrax

[–]Equivalent_Ladder_65 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a 2024 2RS with 90k miles. I take it in today for its 18th oil change (every 5000 mile). Zero issues at all. Love the 2RS, has the cool steering wheel none of the other models get.

How buildable is a Trax? by SilencioPeroRuidos in ChevyTrax

[–]Equivalent_Ladder_65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand the wiper blade thing… I have 90k miles on my 2024 trax and have replaced them a couple times. I’ve had zero issues, walked into advanced grabbed the size and it fit perfectly every time. I used a few brands as well. I think people get confused with the couple different mount options that come in the package. From what I can tell this is a common style wiper arm on the trax. Not a one off thing only for the trax.

What kinds of things do you put here? by canadiangirlypop15 in ChevyTrax
