Default 06 colorado

Hello, Some issues I have had with my 06, 2.8 4cyl. which just turned over 100K miles. They are notorious for blower relay switch trouble. This is an easy fix though with a replacement for @ 15 bucks. But until it is replaced you will only have high fan. They are also known to have Purge valve solenoid trouble and or the purge canister valve. Both will cause a check engine light. You must read the code to figure out which it is. I hope this helps some. Mine is a 4X4 and is horribly under powered also.
