Questions About 2008 Isuzu i-290’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Isuzu's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Isuzu? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your i-290 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your i-290 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my i-290 transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2008 i-290’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Isuzu, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Isuzu i-290 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Isuzu i-290 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.

  • Should I avoid driving my Isuzu i-290 if there is a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.
