Injectors Recall, TROOPER LS 2002 4JX1 TC- Is it Too Good to Be True?

**JhunTrooper** · November 17th, 2012 09:16 PM

How true?
This is how it goes, somewhere last year when I came to know the injector issue’s upon reading in this forum including the recall campaign done by Isuzu Philippines and found the copy of the letter from Isuzu, I send the letter to my wife and told her to print it and visit the Isuzu casa regarding the recall, in short the casa personnel took the details of our car noted that they will notify my wife once it is verified and if the car is still under the said recall. Months are passed and during my vacation last Feb 2012, a call from Isuzu casa to my wife informing that the injector replacement has been approved and we can bring the car anytime that week. Obviously I am happy but a little kind of worry also because there is no problem with the car, means the car is doing well. Anyway I said to myself, they will replace it for free and for a new injector, so I brought the car to the case. The SA told me the works will take half a day so it is up to me if I will wait in the waiting room or they will call me once it is finish, BTW the casa did not allow any customer in the service area.
Ok the car is finished they informed me, I drove the car back home and upon arrived home I open the hood and check if there is a sign that they really open the engine, I did not found much sign instead I found an old red sealant lying on the engine.
My question sir, are the casa are true in their claimed? I did not notice any significant changes in the performance of the car after the works, as I said earlier the car is doing well before the works. Now it is almost a year after the said replacement.
Any comments are very much welcome, TIA

If that's the case Boss Jhun (it should be a good news), then i better include the Trooper in my list of wanna haves for my birthday haha!

Choosing between a used Toyota Landcruiser 70 Series 4.2 straight-6 from Port Irene, a brand-new Suzuki Grand Vitara 3.2 V6 VVT to be imported from Japan, and now to include, a used Isuzu Trooper 3.0 that i hope is a flood-free unit.

Cheers and regards!

sa amin sir may 1year na din after claiming sa recall, so far wala pa din problem, even before we claim the recall,

sa amin pinalitan talaga since pinakita sa amin yun old injectors and naka list sa isang maliit na paper yun sa amin.

btw sa isuzu qave namin ginawa.

Sir BRIAN, nice to hear that sir, ginawan naman siya ng work order the same form kapag normal na nagpapagawa ka, but then hindi naman nila pinakita, siguro dahil hindi rin naman kasi ako nagtanong e, sa isuzu pampanga pala ginawa ung sa amin sir.

Hi Sir, how did you avail of the free replacement? Are you the original owner?

Pwede din ba mag avail kung 3rd owner na? Thanks po.

sir astra22, our sir actually I'm not the one who personally apply for the replacement, my wife did, yun lang I let her bring the printed letter of the recall and the casa took the details and verify if the vehicle is still under the recall, bali nag try lang actually nakalimutan nanga namin yun untill last feb they informed us for rplacement, in your case sir pwedi parin as long na hindi pa na undergo for replacement, btw 2nd owner pala ako.

If ever, abisuan mu nacu mu chief.

Thanks and have a great day.... GOD bless
