Check your engine mounts especially your front and back ones, cause if your engine mounts are worn then that can cause that!

Suggest you get the repair manual for your auto- Request it on google "repair manual for Isuzu ------" For $6 on a CD you'll get the entire 7000 or so pages including how to take apart the door and fix replace the handle- plus anything else that comes up

or read the FSM. or drive to any body shop and ask for help. most will do it for good will,,,,,,

Battery is too low charge, or bad/dirty connections at battery terminals causing voltage drop, or bad starter. Check the easy components first with a volt meter

Check your Fuel Lines and your Fuel Pump. (I just fixed a problem with my 2001 Isuzu Rodeo Fuel Return Line). Also remember that in Rodeos, as soon as you turn your car key to turn the ignition on (just to make the dashboard lights go on) a certain amount of gasoline gets pumped to your engine in preparation of you turning the key all the way to crank the ignition and start the car. In other words, even before you turn the key all the way to crank the ignition, the Fuel Pump will pump some gasoline through the Fuel Lines to your engine (it will pump the gasoline for about 4 seconds then stop). So when you go to start your Rodeo, remember to turn the key with one continuos motion so that you start the ignition cranking while the gasoline is being actively pumped. In addition, you should never turn the ignition lights on without turning the key all the way to start the engine. Doing so could cause that bit of gasoline that was pumped to start the engine to just sit there and create problems.

Check you EGR valve, remove and clean up all black carbon deposits, it's probably blocked or sticking

what country? in USA try using a scan tool to see errors. lost the operators guide, it seems hard to find too. but here it is. most cars this year ,all those are options. and comes is levels. alarm and or immobilizers. the keyless-entry and antitheft module glows the lamp to tell you the anti-theft indicator lamp to tell you the car will not start, this module in fact controls the starter relay. to read the manual, lost, go here and click and talk to helminc.com http://www.isuzu.com/owners_driving.jsp RTM. read the manual and see what features you have. if doing repairs, see alldata.com login and read the security chapter, its all there to read at any time .

stalls, is the word. here they all, each takes, simple tests.

1. battery weak.,and dischaged for 3 possible reasons, 12.6v id good 13.3-15v good running. not less.
2. A/C compressor seized.
3. ISC/IAC bad on the engine, idle controls totally dead. RPM low.
4. Horrid loss of engine power, if car will not move fast , this be it.

i think that is it.

sounds like there is a posibble electrical short somewhere ,possibly in a thermo fan,as usually are allways on when aircond is on, (air-con compressor could be seized?) also Cheak IAC valve if there is one on the back of the Throttle body here is a link that you may also find helpfull

check selector switch, may wires touch each others.

your problem may not be electrical at all... have you done fuel pressure test ? simple things like a blocked fuel filter or pick up, will be trouble starting. also check fuel pressure regulator.

most likely it would, the least expensive way to try to fix it is a transmission filter and fluid change. the internal solenoids will start to get a varnish on them if not serviced regularly. I don't know how many miles you have been since the last transmission service or how many miles are on your vehicle. you could ad a cleaner into the transmission to see if that would help, they make stuff designed to clean up varnish buildup.

you may have a broken band or a bad solenoid. most parts stores can tell you what the code is did you change trans filter

Please have your front end, including your brakes and wheel bearings checked as soon as possible. It doesn't sound like it is safe to drive it like it is. Get professional help.

It could be your brake pad has worn down and is rubbing on the metal backing, or a wheel bearing needs to be replaced. There are several components in there that could be malfunctioning---most malfunctions in the wheel/steering can be VERY dangerous...please have it checked by a professional before you drive it again.

You need to replace the wheel caliper

Don't know what car you have but it sounds like your key has lost it's code, go to dealer and get key coded into vehicle

Check bulbs then fuses
