I found the Gate Rubber guide..it shows the 1998
3.5L as an interference enging...75,000 mile replacement recommendation...the 3.2L Trooper engine show to be non-interference.

This has most engines with timing belts...

Rebate... by darionlow

Hmm, strange, there are no rebates going on right now, at least in the bay area - I checked Isuzu's website and also have been watching the dealer ads. Guess I'll keep waiting....
Thanks!

Isuzu just ended a rebate/incentive program on 2-28, below is an article I found in Edmunds News:
 
February U.S. auto sales
Source: Associated Press
Publication date: 2001-03-02
 
February 2001 car and light truck sales in the United States by the major automakers. The table compares sales in February 2001 with sales in February 2000, and year-to-date totals for the two years.
 
Isuzu Month
 
Truck: 6,581 vs. 8,302, down -17%
 
Truck: 11,397 vs. 15,046, down -24% Year-to-date
  
Don't let the numbers discourage you, this truck is nice!
Hang in there, your bound to get one heck of a deal.
 
Good Luck!

Isuzu rebates by wlbrown9

Look under regional rebates, incentives, leases.
Looks to be $1750 on 2WD or $2000 on 4WD in DEALER CASH Incentives. Or it shows 0.0% up to 60 months "Subvened APR" through IMAC. Doubt you can get both. The 0.0% would probably be the better way to go. I did a quick calc... $20,000 for 60 months at 7.99% (my credit union rate) is $405.43. $22,000 for 60 months at 0.0% is 366.67.
Almost $40/mo ...hum.. $2400 over the life of the loan. Seems they had $2500 OR 3.9% for 60 months last June when I bought mine '00 LS 2WD... That worked out to within $1/month. BTW, this is listed as being from 3/1 - 4/30.

Actually, I did see the rebate you mentioned (after entering my zip code) but it was on a Rodeo. I am in the market for a Trooper, so of course those incentives/rebates don't really do much for me.
Re: Raydahs, d'oh, didn't even know one was going on - I never saw it advertised in the paper or on TV, I wonder if it was in the Bay Area at all.
Guess I'll play the waiting game a lil while longer...

Just bought a 99 S 23,000mi. w/ auto trans, moonrf, 4x4, cd(not sure if 1 or 6 change, has 6 lights & #'s, but only a single load chamber, couldnt find a "changer" in vehicle), alloys, fog lts, fold mirrors, lthr steer whl, priv glass, AC
for $17,900.
A Good Deal?
 
please help with A couple of questions;
 
1. a noise, like a fan motor, near the shifter?
2. "power" "winter" buttons, for what?
3. TOD, can be manually engaged or is auto?
if manual,use it when?
4. any recalls I should know about?
5. what are the major maintenance intervals I need to maintain warranty?
6. what is warranty? 3yr or 5? 36,000 or 50,000?
 
Thankyou very much,
Cautiously happy owner, so far

The 6 cd changer only has one slot. Hit the button for the slot you want and when you get 2 blinking lights on either side of the slot, stick in your CD. You can do this for any/all the slots.

Here are the other answers:
1) Not sure of a noise near the shifter
2) Power button moves your shift points to redline instead of around 4500rpms, gives crisper harder acceleration Winter mode can be engaged when in "D" at a stop and starts the car in 3rd gear so as not to spin the rear tires in snow, it disengages after you hit 20mph.
3) TOD can be left on 24x7, it can be used on dry. This will automatically shift anywhere from 15%->50% of the power to the front axle.
4) None that I know of on '99s
5) 30K intervals are the major ones
6) 3yr 50K miles

Welcome to the club, check out http://isuzu-suvs.com for some good info and pics.

The details I gave are for the Trooper:

http://www2.edmunds.com/servlets /rebate.RebateDetail?
subp=14875&make=Isuzu&model= Trooper&program=Dealer

http://www2.edmunds.com/servlets /rebate.RebateDetail?subp=14888&make=Isuzu&model= Trooper&program=APR

Well, the above wrapped...if you can piece it together it should take you to the West regional Dealer Incentive and Special financing page...they are for the Trooper. (I also had to add a couple of spaces to the links since the software said I could not post words of over 100 characters
 
  Almost makes me want to go down and see what kind of deal I can get trying to trade my '00 LS for a '01 with the 0.0% financing Sales tax here in Tenn. is only on the difference, I think before the payoff of the old loan, so one of the major expenses would only be a couple hundred dollars instead of $1500+ without trade. Of course, the values of some SUV's seemed to have crashed last fall..Jeep Grand Cherokee's got cheap since there were tons of '00's on the lots at year end.

Ahh, sorry, I was looking at the official Isuzu webpage, and they have nothing on the Trooper listed there, I didn't realize you meant Edmunds.com.
Well, 0.0 financing is nice! I think I'll wait 1 or 2 more months though to wait for the $2500 rebate to come back, which should knock down the price even more. Thanks for the links.
