#11953 of 11964 2001 Trooper coming out of mothballs
by myth1
Apr 18, 2011 (7:33 pm)
I am turning in my VW Passat lease and am bringing my 2001 Isuzu Trooper out of "mothballs" and back into full time service. It runs great, has spent most of it's days in my carport and only has 63,500 miles. I have driven it about once a week just to keep it limber. I am looking to spruce it up with new car mats. Does anybody know a way to get new OEM Isuzu mats? Can I order them through a still operating Isuzu dealer? If not, how about getting them from Australia or Phillipines?

Couple of ways to go here.....you can go to www.myisuzuparts.com and shop the parts you need and get quotes...if any are to be had....from dealers OR you can try people who bought a lot of the dealership inventory when they shut down North American operations and closed dealers. An email to Jlemond
bellsouth.net may help, he has lots of parts, and a dealer in Missouri, St. Louis Isuzu, will dropship direct from Isuzu Japan if the part is available and you buy it through them.
HTH One guys opinion.

I recently had my mechanic replace the timing beltand water pump. Everything is working except that I have some sort of rattle under the hood. I hear it when I go over bumps, when I brake, etc. Could the water pump be loose but still not leak?
Also, my mechanic is saying that he is having difficulty getting parts for the Trooper. Are parts shortages becoming an issue now that Isuzu is not in the USA anymore.
thanks,

this might sound nuts but after I had my timing belt changed I heard what I thought was rattling under the hood also but it was actually rattling under the car . I needed a new catalytic converter . I chalked it up to coincidence. But who knows. I sure hope yours is a loose screw instead of a 800 converter
#11957 of 11964 just bought a 99 trooper

The 4 wheel on demand light is flashing. Just bought the Trooper from a friend and when I bought it he said "the problem was a bad sensor or two or something like that and was expensive and so he just ignored the light". Anyway, living in a Sacramento suburb he never had a need for 4 wheel drive. Where as I bought it to take it out on the desert.
However, putting it into 4 wheel drive manually works but it just bugs me, that light flashing and wondering what it would do if it all worked properly.
Any thoughts, thanks.
#11958 of 11964 2000 Isuzu Trooper slow accel from a stop

My 2000 Trooper has an issue that when from a stop you can press on the gas and it very slowly starts to accel very slowly and will kick into 2nd gear and finally get up to full speed eventually. Not sure what this is and dont want to start tearing it apart yet until i have an idea were to start. Any suggestions will help. Thanks

Try changing the wiring that goes to the injectors. I had this prolem last year and finally someone found the problem and it worked. it is a bunch of hoses that looks all bunched up together. lots of stores do not sell the part but you can order from Isuzu Auto Parts. 888 509 8712. Ask for someone who really knows about the parts. Or ask a mechanic what is the name so you can order, it cost about $200 and change but so worth it.

Did you have any other symptoms besides slow acceleration, maybe before it became slow acceleration? Who found the wiring problem, and how did they narrow it down to that? Did you have any CEL indications or codes?
I have an intermitten electrical issue of some sort, like an injector missing its open signal or something like that once in a while. It almost feels like a spark plug not getting spark, you can feel it thru the whole drive train, but its very random and spurratic.
