1997 Isuzu Trooper Transmission Q&A

  • 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. 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. Defying your Trooper towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Trooper is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Trooper's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Isuzu Trooper’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Isuzu's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Isuzu Trooper? Yes. Isuzu Trooper 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.

  • Should I avoid driving my Isuzu Trooper if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Trooper if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
