The back door latches got rusty and the doors would not open so I dismantled the doors and replaced the latches.
This is a great vehicle, has plenty of power, and I average 18 miles per gallon.
There is one problem with the automatic transmission that nobody has been able to figure out. When the outside temperature drops below 20 degrees, the "Check Transmission" light comes on when I start it in the morning and I have to shift the transmission manually all the way to work. After work, the light is not on and the transmission works perfectly. This condition has existed for the last 60,000 miles.
Just wanted to add to the original poster, FYI, the engine in your truck is ALL 100% Isuzu 3.2L 24V V6 Sohc engine - there's no Mitsubishi period in this truck.
And the auto transmission is the GM 4L30-E Transmission.
Oh, and check the condition of your alternator, get your transmissions fluid/filter changed, and I bet the *cold tranny* issue symptoms go away. Sounds to me like your transmission could be a little low on fluid, or has dirty fluid in it.
Also, on real cold mornings, let that truck idle for about 5-7 minutes, this too, will help cure the cold tranny.
If you're wondering, I have a '97 Rodeo with 167k miles. I've owned this truck for 10yrs and 157k miles, it's an automatic too. Keep your tranny fluid changed every 25-30k miles and it will last quite some time.
Agree 100% - these are GREAT rigs!
