Ive owned 2 of these ,Both Bought new in 96 and 03.Both had 4 bangers.My96 had a 5peed manual and my 03 has a 5 speed auto.the manual was much better in gas milage.lost 5 mpg ave with the automatic.If they still made them I'd buy another with a stick.Mine still runs great and burns no oil.performs in every way practically the same as when it was a year old.No probs except replaced the AC comp and fuel pump.132000 miles on it and she still looks great too. Gets lots of compliments still.
I found one in Oklahoma with a rebuilt transmission at 0 miles for $11k!!! It originally had 26,000 miles put into it but I am buyiny it ASAP!! I love these little trucks, the 2002 GMC Sonoma was my very first vehicle I purchased from an old friend of mine during hard times. I endes trading it in for a 2016 Toyota Sport because it was giving me a lot of problems and I had no money for repairs but I dearly missed my little truck. It had 155,000 miles on it last I used. I like my Tacoma but she's not the same as my Sonoma. I cannot wait to get my Sonoma again, something about S10s just remind me of nostalgia and the past.
Great video man! I also have the 4 cylinder '03 Sonoma and haven't had any problems besides the A/C compressor going out. Gotta love the part about accelerate to 60mph because mine would take about a minute to get up to that speed! haha love the truck though.
Hey I have the same truck, mine is blue with a side step. I love it, you can maneuver through tight spaces when turning sharp. It's a good truck to start out with as a first automobile for me =] God I love my truck hahaha
The sound of the flasher relay is coming from behind the glove compartment. (DRL relay also located here) Not from the right speaker. If you take care of the 4-cylinder and drive it with some common sense, it will last a good long time.
Sounds neat, make sure to catch that on tape if you can. Oh, and don't forget about that 6.9 IDI diesel you've got! Some folks would like to see you finish that someday too!
i have a 96 sonoma v6 sle power everythingh ext cab only thing missing is 4wd trucks runs perfect few repairs beside wearn tar.... strong engine and good fit n finish i looked around it no moulding edges oh an have 105000 miles not alot for the age
I have a 1998 Blazer and the Turn signal click definetly doesn't come from the passenger side speaker.....it comes from behind the Glovebox on the passenger side of the dash.
I've never been a fan of that body style, but its seems like a pretty nice little truck. I bet its thrifty with that 2.2. Decently quick also. Whoever bashes that little four cylinder probably has never driven something with the iron duke in the doghouse! They'd go bananas in five minutes. (But I'd never trade mine for another 'four... unless it was a Toyota 20R!)
awesome vid daniel hows the class you taking going man that truck fired right up great vid 5/5 jeesh alot of packs theer on the pass door nice little truck
2.2? thats alot alot truck for a small motor. I use to have a Ford Ranger 2.3 {reg cab} and I thought that thing was was underpowered. got the job done and loved it though.
my buick 3.8 had that oil gague problem, except it went to max when u hit the gas. i was told this is normal, but i lost the motor due to bad pressure.
my 6.2L diesel's oil presure gauge does the same thing. reads around30 psi idle rev it up and it runs over to 70 psi. and 14 seconds to get up to 60! that blows my 6.2 outa the water even with its turbo it only gets up to 60 in around 16. i dont like them 4 cylinder trucks they idle too fast for my liking. i prefer a 650-700 idle not a 1000 idle like that one
winddmmy That's cool. I got 252k on my Ford Expedition. Still though, statistically, GM cars and trucks are weaker than Ford. Sure, there are some exceptions, but... average...

i can't believe how quick the engine started. not even close to a second!

Great lil trucks
i have a 96 sonoma v6 sle power everythingh ext cab only thing missing is 4wd trucks runs perfect few repairs beside wearn tar.... strong engine and good fit n finish i looked around it no moulding edges oh an have 105000 miles not alot for the age
good! This little truck for USA is big for Spain LoL.
Also, in Spain we can´t see a lot of V6 or V8 engines :(
Good video, Alex, Spain.
I have the same truck except its step side and its a 4.3 Vortek ;) Shes a beast
I have a 1998 Blazer and the Turn signal click definetly doesn't come from the passenger side speaker.....it comes from behind the Glovebox on the passenger side of the dash.
form109 our neighborhers have a blazer it's a 1999 it runs very good
nice, i have the same truck except mines the chevy s10 and a 5 speed. those 2.2's aren't the best 4cyl around but they get the job done.
I believe on these trucks the fuse box is in/under the glove box, so you might just be hearing the relay still.
sweet truck, i love these ans Silverados my self

cool video
Its not a problem on Sonoma- thats how it is on all of them.
seems like a nice truck
Quick startup!
Found one for 400
Buck . Need new brake line thoughts.. is that a bad thing?
I drive a Silverado 3500 dump truck for work and it does the same thing. Makes me nervous ima blow somethin out
I'm looking to buy one exacty like that but i'd want it a step side tho.
awesome vid daniel hows the class you taking going man that truck fired right up great vid 5/5 jeesh alot of packs theer on the pass door nice little truck
ive been hassling him eversince he got it assembled.
Cool!
I love my sonoma its a 4.3 liter engine
2.2? thats alot alot truck for a small motor. I use to have a Ford Ranger 2.3 {reg cab} and I thought that thing was was underpowered. got the job done and loved it though.
I own a 2001 sonoma reg. cab 2.2 auto and the oil pressure fluctuates whenever I hit the throttle
my buick 3.8 had that oil gague problem, except it went to max when u hit the gas. i was told this is normal, but i lost the motor due to bad pressure.
Nice little truck, whose is it?
I have a gmc truxk that dies on me while i drive or stop any suggestions
The blinker sound actually comes from behind the passenger airbag. I know this because I had to replace the relay on my S-10 Blazer (00 model)
i mean step side. i wish it wasn't though, cuz i want more bed room, i carry a lot of stuff it just looks... wierd with one haha
my 6.2L diesel's oil presure gauge does the same thing. reads around30 psi idle rev it up and it runs over to 70 psi. and 14 seconds to get up to 60! that blows my 6.2 outa the water even with its turbo it only gets up to 60 in around 16. i dont like them 4 cylinder trucks they idle too fast for my liking. i prefer a 650-700 idle not a 1000 idle like that one
Who's cigarettes where those!?!? lol
@celticslimjim My father has a 2000 Sonoma. It is a 4.3L V6 I do believe, it takes no time to reach 100 Km/h haha
so whos truck is this?? and what college u goin to again//
Where. Can I. Find. A. 1999. GMC. Sonoma
the noise from the signal dosent come from the speaker haha its under the glove box....
i have the same truck mines a 98
pretty slow and sounds like a ricer. guess its a decent little truck.
Mine is a 6 cylinder
i have a 6 cylinder 4.3L gmc sonoma. This truck is nothing compared to mine
ya yayayay im the first to comment nice vid Dan
small lol
generic make chevy
2.2's are shitty
gay mans choice
that is one shitty motor
BTW, one of the worst trucks ever.
I got a 02 and not a bad economy truck
+rJay i have a 94 sonoma with 265000+ on her 4.3l she runs great!I LOVE MY TRUCK!!
winddmmy That's cool. I got 252k on my Ford Expedition. Still though, statistically, GM cars and trucks are weaker than Ford. Sure, there are some exceptions, but... average...
with the sonoma just check your fluids change the oil every 3000 ml and replace the fuel pump every 100000 ml she keep going great!
+rJay they both can be very strong. I've seen gm and fords with both high milage.... But I prefer gm engines bullet proof. 5.3, 4.8, 5.7, 4.3 etc
