1988 Isuzu Pickup Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Isuzu's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Isuzu? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. 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 Pickup is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Pickup's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Isuzu Pickup transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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 Isuzu Pickup transmission fluid leak? Yes. Isuzu Pickup transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
