2007 Chevrolet Colorado Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2007 Chevrolet Colorado documents a naturally aspirated 2.9L DOHC inline-four of 178 cubic inches and a naturally aspirated 3.7L DOHC inline-five of 223, fitted to three cabs, four-door extended, two-door standard and four-door crew, in Base, LS, LT and WT trim. Torque values and clearances given here belong to these two engines specifically, which is the practical reason to work from the year-correct book rather than one written for a neighboring model year.

Known issues on the 2007 Colorado. Three recalls are on the record for this year. One covers the brake lamp switch, which can fail so all stop lamps go out at once or stay illuminated, leaving following drivers without warning of a stop. Another covers cabs without a rear seat, whose front center seating position does not meet the federal child restraint requirement. The third is a certification label with an incomplete rim designation, which can lead to a replacement wheel of the wrong contour being fitted. Of 140 complaints, 41 are electrical, 20 on service brakes and 15 on exterior lighting.
