2006 Isuzu i-280 Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Isuzu? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Isuzu tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your i-280 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my i-280 transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2006 i-280’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Isuzu. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Isuzu i-280? Yes. Isuzu i-280 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
