Isuzu Trooper discussion

[baby_scar]

Good Evng. I have an 2003 Isuzu Trooper 4jx1 engine local edition

1) napansin ko na "nagrarattle" ang steering wheel sa trooper ko when i reach more than 70 to 80 km. tapos parang nagvibrate ung mga gilid ng door. considering na due na ang pagpalit ng gulong sa front. pinalitan ko ng 2 new tires sa harap.pinacheck ko wheel alignemnt at camber - ok naman. wlang probelma daw sabi ng yokohama mekaniko. after this i experience steering and door upholstery rattle at 70 km. pero when i release (mawawal ung rattle) then pagtapak ko naman. minsan it will rattle or wala. can u help me this

2) last week, ung trooper sabi ng kapatid ko. iba ung tunog ng engine. so pinatingin namin sa mekaniko. sabi nya. palit air filter (wla na weird sound) at ok na ung takbo fom 0 to 60km.. tapos pagtapak ng gasolina. ayaw mag pick up (takbo agad) kahit nasa 20 to 40km parang hindi kaya ng trooper na takbo agad. pls help

3) kung nakabilad sa init. ayaw talaga lumamig at nasa traffic. pero kung sa gabi at kahit nasa traffic (malamig ung aircon)

4) how will you know na hindi bagay ung atf na ginamit mo?


thank you

We have, in fact we replaced our turbo unit kasi sinabi kelangan na daw pero sa totoo lang pwede pa ayusin... Pero we replaced it with a surplus unit for 50k sourced by A1 in Del Monte Ave. Later on we learned na hindi na pala sila matapat, pero the turbo unit they sourced for us sabi nila surplus unit daw pero it looked really new and we had no problems with it naman.

It may be true that the turbo is the problem, but check first with other mechanics to make sure that it really needs replacement. Some good places would include Malabon Diesel and Central Diesel. AFAIK, they have the equipment and the know how to fix Troopers and I believe they should be able to source parts for them, at a much cheaper cost than the casa.

saan po ung central diesel? they fix turbo? how about injector?

hi guys, what year model ba ang 4JG2 3.1 engine?

[GTi]

AFAIK, uptil 1999 ang Trooper na may 4JG2 engine. Local units are rare in the 2nd hand market though, few want to sell them and resale value is very high.

[BRIAN]

*GTi how to spot if 1999 model? Yun ba ang meron brakelight sa bumper?

And bakit mataas resale value? Because sa engine? Unlike the 4jx1?

Hindi, yung mga may brakelight sa bumper at kulay grey ang bumper, yun yung mga 4x4 na 4JX1. Napakakonti lang ang mga ito. The 4JG2 Troopers have silver decals and have the same radiator grille as the last batch 2005 Trooper.

Dahil matibay ang engine, unlike the problematic 4JX1, same reason kung bakit mataas resale value ng 4M40 Pajero.

[BRIAN]

*GTi ah ok sobrang rare nga sa daan yun may brakelight sa bumper 4x4 na 4JX1 pala yun

sir diba ang 2005 and 2003 same radiator grille? billet type? yun 2000 and 2001 ata yun may word pa na isuzu?

pls provide picture wala ako makita maski sa sulit
