Where is the transmission fill plug located on a isuzi trooper

Right below where the upper hose connects to the engine.

DO A TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FILTER CHANGE SEE WHAT HAPPENS

FLUID FILL PLUG LOCATED BACK TOP OF THE TRANSFERCASE.

Hi, I don't believe you have a dip stick on that truck, the check/fill plug is underneath on the transmission pan, the bottom plug would be for draining and the upper one for checking and filling, check only with engine running on level ground, parking brake on, with fluid warm, not real hot, move shift lever through all gears then back to park, idle about 3 min. and remove plug use little finger to check ,it should be up to the bottom of plug hole, if needed add recommended fluid in plug hole with a simple pump or squeeze bottle. Fluid should be a reddish color with no burnt smell! Have a pan and rags ready!

the trooper has no dipstick for trans its a sealed system on the trans pan you will find a fill plug and a drain plug the one on top inrecess is the one your looking for with the truck in park running remove fill plug fluid level should be just below that hole you can use ur finger to tell



Hope this helps


Positive Feedback ALWAYS appreciated :)

Hi

Do you know which gearbox it is? some are GM and some BMW I know that sounds crazy but this model has 2 types of gearbox neither made by Izusi. Look here at this diagram tell me if that is the correct box http://www.unofficialbmw.com/images/BMW_Automatic_4L30E.pdf

It's check at the transmission pan, there is two drain plugs, the lower one is to drain transmission fluid, the higher one is to check level, with engine running and in park remove up most drain plug if fluid start to come out level is ok, if no fluid coming out will need to add some till it start to come out.

Unfortunatly you cannot check the transmission, or add fluid yourself. You have to take it to a dealer, or a transmission specialist. That's not strictly true. The Trooper uses a GM "closed" transmission system. Its possible to do it yourself, but a real pain and requires some kind of pump system to pump in the fluid from below the vehicle. There are 2 filling bolts on the transmission pan, the lower one is the drain, the higher one towards the pan corner is the fill/level plug. You must remove the fill plug and pump fluid into it until it starts to run back out. Run the engine to distribute and warm the fluid, then check the level again, topping up if necessary. Replace the plug using new seal.

Please don't forget to rate!

Hello, it is possible that the pump is going bad but, it sounds more like water in the fuel or a dirty filter or dirty injectors. I would try a fuel additive first to see if that will clear your problem. Let me know if you need any help. Good luck.

usually there is a dipstick for the tranny fluid. if you can find that you add the fluid through there with a funnel. other wise you will have to look on top of the tranny for a check plug.
