Isuzu Trooper discussion

I personally have no problem if the car had an engine transplant as long as it was done correctly with a good engine and has proper documentation.

hello trooper owners! ask ko lang kung meron bang lumabas na local trooper with 4jg2 engine 4x4? what years did it came out and ok pa ba to bilhin na 2nd hand car?

Yes mayroon, I own a 1997 4JG2 LS manual 4x4 unit since new. It was the first year that the TD came out together with the V6 but with auto trans. It has no fender flares but with a hood scoop for the intercooler, whereas the gasoline version has none. I believe it came out only up to early 1999, after which, the automatic versions came out for the diesel variants

Mga sir, baka meron kayo kilala and pwede marefer sa amin na reliable na mechanic ng trooper. May lumalabas kasi na check engine pagstart ng kotse, tapos hindi siya mawawala hanggat hindi mo ilagay sa Drive. Yun yung napansin namin. May mga ilang beses na minsan wala naman siyang check engine. Pero ngayon, minsan kahit umandar na, nagflash yung check engine tapos nawawala din naman. Hindi ko na kasi makontak yung dati namin mechanic (kuya robert, baka kakilala niyo) kaya wala na matinong nagme-maintain nung trooper. Baka may marefer kayo ulit mga sir. Thanks po.

Pinalitan na din po pala computer box niyang trooper namin mga sir. Sa parents ko po kasi yan. Yung mekaniko, 2-3months ago, pinalitan daw yung computer box, yun daw kasi yung sira, hindi na ata ma-read (i-confirm ko po mga sir)after naman nun, ok na. Wala lang kasi kami makita na matinong mekaniko ngayon nitong trooper. Yung iba kasi, sayang lang pera, parang hindi kabisado and mahal pa sumingil. patulong naman mga sir. Salamat po.

Sa dealer talaga dapat pinapaservice ang trooper most mechanics aren't familiar with 4jx1-tc under its hood unlike isuzu's 4ja1 and 4jb1 engines
I know someone who also owned a trooper they spent 300k sa overhaul ng trooper cause they had the car service outside the dealer which is a big no no witht the trooper you should also religiously follow the pms interval of 5k kms change oil and 10k kms for air and oil filter in short maselan talaga ang trooper produced from 1999-2006

thanks sir crosswind sa pagreply po. Yup, we follow po kung ano dapat gawin sa trooper. Nagkataon na ngayon, almost a year na, hindi na namin makontak yung magme-maintain ng trooper namin. And kabisado niya lahat ng sira,problema at kung ano ano pa sa trooper. May gumagawa ngayon, taga isuzu din. Pero nagkakataon lang siguro parang lagi pa din nasisira mga every 2mos may problema. Nagagawa naman pero either may lumitaw na iba or masira uli. Kaya naghahanap sana kami uli na may magrefer dito. Dito din namin sir nahanap yung talagang nakapagpatino sa trooper namin. Before nung hawak pa niya, halos wala talaga sira. Kung may masira man, alam agad and alam mo yung feeling na pagnakita na niya, saglit lang gawa na agad. And kung may remedyo pa, inaayos lang talaga and alam niya kung makakasama o hindi. Na-spoiled ata yung trooper kaya nagtampo. Haha.

Any one here used Bilstein shock absorbers for their UBS69 troopers? Was it a better ride than OEM? Can I have the part number of the front and rear shocks and where did you buy them?

[al00399]

sirs buhayin ko lang tong thread. Just today the speedometer of my trooper (4jx1) stopped working. San po location ng speed sensor ng trooper (with picture sana) ? and any idea on how much it is?

[igoy.menzi]

wat you mean starex_gold??

we had our trooper since 2003 and we just replaced the injectors 1 due to bad fuel.. naka higop ata ng foriegn substance.. damn that gas station.... and since then ok naman ang trooper namin... but evry 3-6 months ko pinag change oil kahit hinid pa ummabot sa mileage... better safe than sorry.. mahal pa naman magpapalit ng injectrs... hehehe... buti nlang we got ours in waranty the first time... maybe next wont be... magstos nga lang, mahal pa naman ng oil sa trooper like the besco... i dont mind the change oil expense as long as my rides gonna ba ok... hehehe.. but it would be better sa troopeer kung makatakbo cya ng mabilis at loooong distances.... mukhang mas mganda ang tunog ng engine compared to just driving around the city...

May I ask what model is your trooper? I am planning to buy a second hand unit na trooper and I had an initial talk with the owner. It's a 2002 Model, local and with a 3.0cc 4jx1 engine. Is the fuel injectors really that bad for this particular model? I saw a thread regarding this matter and it kinda makes me consider my decision to buy such model.

We had one from 2003-2011. Engine performance is very good. Ride comfort is good for a ladder frame SUV, though handling is rather poor. Beige interior is a pain to keep clean and some plastic bits are rather brittle like the map light switches. It was a great car for its time. Unfortunately, the 4JX1 was a bit too ahead of its time and so design had many flaws. Once injector problems kick in, it becomes a potential bottomless money pit. Its actually more of "swerte swerte". Some have hardly any problems and really enjoyed the car. Others curse it to the high heavens. Avoid if you aren't the type who likes to tinker and/or it is going to be your only vehicle.

If you really want a Trooper, I'd suggest you look for a 3.1L 4JG2 unit. Less powerful, less sophisticated, probably less fuel efficient but proven and extremely reliable. Same goes for the 4M40 Pajero and the 1KZ 90 series Prado.

Hi mga boss, ask ko lang if need naba na rewiring ng trooper. Yung left turning light is hindi gumagana as well as the break lights, ok nman yung bulb since umiilaw ciyah kapag nakahazard? and if rewiring po, how much yung estimated na gagastusin.

Sir, baka fuse lang yan?

Hi,
You may try to inquire with AZP Trading on their FB page. They could provide you information of what you need and other parts of Isuzu.

[jakewise]

Thanks for this info, I will do that

Anyone suggest a good quality rear shocks for the trooper and possibly its price as well

There are many brands but the most common brand here is a KYB shock absorber. Maybe around 2.2k as I guess roughly.
