Feedback: Isuzu Trooper

[cyxst]

hingi lang sana ako ng konting tulong. balak ko sana bumili ng 2nd hand na SUV (diesel). meron ba sa inyo ang gumagamit ng isuzu trooper? okay ba ito. may nag-aalok sa akin 1994 model for 450T. assuming na okay yung condition nun, okay na ba yung price nun? cencya na kayo at medyo konti lang ang alam ko tungkol dito.

salamat po sa kahit anong feedback.

get the trooper with the 4jx1-tc engine 3.0 DOHC turbo intercooler 160 ps hp


up to 200++ km/h!


yung kinukuhaa mo ba yung with the 3.1 diesel engine?

[mbt]

ok yung trooper... arguably better than a pajero off-road and definitely superior with regards to the engine (assuming the 3.0 turbodiesel). mas mahina yung older 3.1L turbodiesel, and the gasoline engines have a reputation for high fuel consumption

[mdpo]

ok naman yung trooper mine has the 4jx1-tc engine.. matulin! sisiw sa kanya ang 130.

The only problem I have right now is mausok siya minsan and pag tinapakan mo ng todo smoke belching . Pano kaya ayusin to?

[Hero]

a trip to the service station would help..change oil..air filter maybe...

mdpo:

accdg. to what i read from the diesel gurus ganun daw po talaga ang diesel pag biglang tinapakan ng todo .. it emits black smoke kasi 'di nasusunog completely iyong fuel.

Withregards to the trooper, the 3.1 diesel engine daw is hard to service. Hirap daw ng parts dito. Tama ba ito?

Kaya mas OK kung 4JX1-TC iyan. But the problem is mid-1998 yata lumabas iyong engine na iyon e.

2lylytwrld,
I think its the other way around. The 4jg2 engine (3.1tdic) is a lot easier to service copared to the 4jx1. Also there were several cases of a 4jx1 smoke belching. IMO the 4jg2 is a more proven engine compared to the x1. Anyway, just my 2 cents.

[niwde11]

yup, same with djerms. 4jg2 din yung sakin(last batch of 99). medyo pricey ang maintenance ng 4jx1 being a CRDI(just ask KCboy). medyo me lumabas din mga problematic na 4jx1. but true, it is more powerful(4jx1) than the older 4jg2.

simple lang... as I always say... biodiesel lang katapat nyan (parang take 2 aspirins and call me )

yung sa boss ko, 2001 crdi trooper, yan ang ginagawa nya, solved kaagad!

[larshell]

My Brother owned Trooper wd 4jg2 engine and me 2000 4jx1.
4jg2 converted from japan 155t mileage no trouble at all basta regular change oil lang. 4jx1 60t mileage need to replace injector RPCB etc.
This is base on our experience.But if you want 4jx1 mine is forsale pm me nalang
Brandnew na lahat

[garyq]

The 4JG2 is around 600K. Yung 4JX1 is around 800K. LHD ito lahat. Malaki ng konti difference sa price. Check first your budget then decide on what model you want then compare mo with other suv's na rin. Tama lahat nung comments nila djerms and edwin.

[Djerms]

rsnald,
ang mahal pa kasi ng biodiesel. Sana lang talaga mapansin na ito ng government. As what Bio-man said in a top gear issue, it will not only help our coconut industry, It will also make us independent sa world price ng diesel coz we will have our own.

Big potential pero no actions done yet. Ir if there are any, very little lang.

Remove the Catalytic Converter...

"ang mahal pa kasi ng biodiesel."

Need not be. All you need is around 2 to 3% blend and you will start appreciating its benefits. That's around P120 per full tank. It will pay foir itself through better performance, higher kms/ltr and less maintenance.

Just watch out for your fuel filter the first few outings. Replace after the first 2-3 full tanks. Drain tanks during that time as well.

Chief, mga ilan nga ba consumption nito (V6 A/t). Some1 offering his 98 for a good price kc .......

[Isuzoom]

I sold my 4jx1 55t km. at 950t sakit sa ulo and very high maintenance. ok sana performance.

[mcbry]

tanong ko lang po, saan ba magaling mag service na shop ng trooper (4JG2) 3.1 turbo diesel? kailangan na yata palitan ng timing belt yung bighorn namin kasi nasa 160+t mileage nya. umilaw na nga yung tbelt indicator nya sa dash. nag tanong ako sa isang electrical shop at sabi nila matatanggal lang raw yung pagilaw ng tbelt indicator pag ni reset yung parang meter sa loob ng dashboard. totoo ba ito? hindi ba automatic na mawawala yung pagilaw nito pag pinalitan na yung timing belt?

sensya na po medyo OT yung post ko. sana matulungan nyo po ako.

thanks.
