2002 Isuzu Rodeo Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Isuzu's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Isuzu Rodeo? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Rodeo’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Rodeo's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2002 Rodeo’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. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Isuzu Rodeo? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Isuzu Rodeo, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.

  • Can I still drive my Isuzu Rodeo if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Rodeo to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
