1999 Isuzu Rodeo LS review from North America
"Overall not too bad, has held up pretty well"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to have the fuel sending unit and ERG sensor replaced at 36K miles.
At 94K, the condensor coil, two A/C hoses, compressor clutch. All under an extended warranty.
I have the same oil burning problem.
General comments?
My major problem is that I have a leak coming from what appears to be the rear bearing on the transmission. I cannot see it actually leaking, and I have tightened all of the bolts on the lower pan. I hate to take it in without narrowing it down since I do not trust dealerships in general. The can almost always come up with $600-$1000 worth of stuff needing to be done to a vehicle.
