General Motors launched the Chevrolet Uplander minivan as the 2005 model in 2004 with a standard wheelbase alongside an extended version which followed production until 2009. Customers of the Chevrolet Uplander can select between three powertrain options where the 3.5L LX9 V6 and 3.9L LZ9 V6 and LGD V6 variants are available. The E85-compatible 3.9L LGD V6 engine rated at 240 horsepower produced 240 lb-ft of torque and it had a displacement of 3,498 cc. This V-shaped engine implements multi-point indirect injection as it provides smooth operation in driving conditions. The four-speed automatic transmission used for front-wheel drive enables balanced handling while the tuned suspension system delivers moderate driving feel. The Chevrolet Uplander model achieves an estimated 16 mpg for city driving while reaching 23 mpg on highway roads. Standard equipment on the Chevrolet Uplander includes disc brakes with antilock function while stability control and traction control systems are available yet side airbags are optional. The Chevrolet Uplander fit into dimensions of 5,191 mm (204.4 in) long and 1,834 mm (72.2 in) wide by 1,834 mm (72.2 in) high and its curb weight reached 1,730 kg (3,814 lbs). United States-based Chevrolet Uplander parts follow high-quality standards that deliver reliable performance while a simple returns process and original equipment manufacturer supplies reflect their commitment to customer satisfaction.
Chevrolet Uplander issues include a group in sealing emissions, stopping in the front, and steering in the hydraulic. Under emissions control, the Uplander may put a check engine light on after refueling. A loose or worn gas cap permits vapor leaks and will cause minor leak codes. Test the cap seal and filler neck, and replace with a new cap on the Uplander. Perform Chevrolet diagnostics to verify the integrity of EVAP and drive cycle, then check. The Uplander has the ability to pulse the pedal during a stop or downhill grade in braking. Variation in the thickness of the rotor and glazing decreases the friction and the stopping distance. Replace brake pad and both in front rotors and get them bedded properly. Use a Chevrolet torque value on caliper hardware and wheel fasteners to avoid running. The Uplander tends to leak the high-pressure power steering hose. The lost fluid contributes to noise, decreases assist, may be dirty, and can contaminate surrounding parts. Fit a new hose to the power steering, flush the system, and check that no air is in the system. Chevrolet observation aids the line inspection, clamping position, and the level of the reservoir. The driver test is finished by driving and making sure that the Uplander stays straight on track and its brakes are working properly.

Chevrolet Uplander Parts Questions & Answers
- Q: How to replace the liftgate emblem/nameplate on Chevrolet Uplander?A: A Chevrolet liftgate emblem/nameplate replacement starts with 2 tools: J 25070 Heat Gun and 3M(TM) Scotch Brite molding adhesive remover disk (3M(TM) P/N 07501). Start by covering the body area and then locate the right locations for your new emblem. Point the Heat Gun J 25070 at the surface from 152 mm (6 in) for 30 seconds as you rotate it to loosen the adhesive. Use a plastic tool with a flat blade to take out the emblem/nameplate from its position. Body panels need the 3M(TM) P/N 07501 Scotch Brite molding adhesive remover disk but plastic panels work better with a lint-free cloth soaked in varnish makers and painters (VMP) naphtha or 50/50 isopropyl alcohol and water. Clean and dry the area thoroughly before installation and put tapes at the installation positions to mark them if required. Install the Chevrolet emblem/nameplate on top of the license plate pocket by following set dimensions that center the UPLANDER symbol. Attach the emblem/nameplate when the mounting surface reaches 27-41°C (80-105°F) using the Heat Gun (J 25070) and keep the emblem/nameplate temperature between 29-32°C (85-90°F). Press the emblem/nameplate onto the surface by matching placement marks and applying uniform pressure after you remove its protective film. End your process by taking off the body panel protection tape.

Next, take out an inflator module and separate the steering wheel control electric connector. Then, you should pull off the steering wheel nut. Mount the Steering Wheel Puller Legs (J 42578) and the Steering Wheel Puller (J 1859-A) onto the steering wheel and then pull the steering wheel away. After removal, puller legs and shall be pulled off from the steering wheel. If equipped, disconnect the controls and the control harness from the steering wheel. For installation, if so equipped, install the control and the control harness to the steering wheel, then pass the wiring through the steering wheel. Mount the steering wheel and attach its steering wheel control Electric connector. Incorporate the steering wheel nut and tighten it to 41 Nm (30 ft. lbs.). Finally, install the inflator module and activate the system of restraints.
- Q: How to replace the lower intake manifold on Chevrolet Uplander?A: In order to replace the lower Intake Manifold, start off by removing the coolant crossover pipe by removing the upper Intake Manifold as well. Then remove the left and right valve Rocker Arm covers, disconnect the engine coolant temperature (ECT) electrical connection, and remove the fuel feed line from the Fuel Rail. Disconnnect the wastegate electric connector from the throttle body and identify the number on the tube grommet at the top of the thermostat airflow tube. Remove the thermostat airflow tube. Remove the grommet plug at the top of the throttle body bypass tube. Put a flat pry tool between bypass tube clamp and tube. Disconnnect the accelerator valve exhaust connector from the passenger side of the throttle body. Then remove the second accelerator valve exhaust connector on the driver side of throttle body. Next, unfasten the Fuel Injector harness connector bracket bolt, disconnect the cmp sensor electrical connector, remove the Fuel Injector rail bolts & pull off the Fuel Rail. Go ahead and remove the lower Intake Manifold bolts and the lower Intake Manifold as well. Loosen the valve Rocker Arm bolts and make sure to get the valve train components on a rack for return installment. Unscrew the valve rocker arms and push rods, make sure that the intake push rods stretch to 147.51mm (5.81inch) and the exhaust push rod to 154.87mm (6.1 inch). The lower Intake Manifold gaskets and seals are to be removed followed by cleaning gasket and seal surfaces of cylinder heads and the engine block, and the lower Intake Manifold with degreaser and eliminating any loose room temperature vulcanizing sealer (RTV). Mount the new lower Intake Manifold gaskets and seals, prelubel the ends of the push rods, and put the push rods back in their positions. Apply prelube to the Rocker Arm friction surfaces, and replace valve rocker arms with their original positions, using 34 n.m (25 lb ft) torque to tighten the valve rocker arms bolts. Replace the gaskets and seals before you apply a small amount of rtv sealer to the four corners of the Intake Manifold to engine block joints before installing the lower Intake Manifold. Put sealer on the lower Intake Manifold bolt threads and install the lower Intake Manifold bolts in the sequence as specified: first to 16 n.m (12 lb ft) and then to 25 n.m (18 lb ft).
