If your trooper has an automatic, there will be a separate dipstick like the engine oil you can check.
If it is a standard, you need to get under the vehicle and there will be a bolt plug on the side of the engine, (refer to Haynes manual for specific place). You pull the bolt and put your finger in and the fluid should just be at the tip of your finger.
I have a 2001 Isuzu Trooper with an automatic transmission and the present answer doesn't help me. I do not have a separate dipstick for the Transmission Fluid as I have found on my other cars.
There is no dipstick on your auto trans. Checking it is a real PITAThe trans pan has 2 plugs in it. The one on the very bottom is the drain. The one in the corner, up higher in a recess is the check/fill plug. To check, the engine must be warm and running, tranny in P. Remove the plug and fluid should dribble out. If it doesn't it's low, fill until it dribbles out, while engine is running. Obviously the truck must be on a lift or up on jackstands.
Thanks for the information also.. I have a 98 Trooper w/auto. trans. This type is called a close case which GM put in the small caddies.
I have a 1994 Isuzu Trooper and it has issues upshifting at lower speeds. How do I check the fluid level in the transmission when there is no dipstick?
if it is an automatic then yes, if it is a standard transmission then no
How do you change the transmission fluid on a 2001 4x4 Isuzu trooper
1999 Isuzu trooper
When changing the filter and fluids of a car, it is important to know the fluid capacity. A 2000 Isuzu Trooper uses 9.1 quarts of transmission fluid.
For a 1995 Isuzu Trooper 4WD, it is recommended to use Dexron III automatic transmission fluid. Ensure to check the owner's manual for any specific requirements or recommendations. When changing the fluid, it's also a good practice to replace the transmission filter for optimal performance.
ATF-III
Same location where you pour the motor oil
To add transmission fluid to a 1985 Isuzu Trooper 4x4, locate the transmission dipstick tube, which is typically found near the back of the engine bay. Remove the dipstick, and using a funnel, pour the recommended type of transmission fluid into the tube. Be sure to check the fluid level with the dipstick after adding fluid to ensure it is at the correct level. Always consult the owner’s manual for specific fluid type and capacity.
To add transmission fluid to a 1994 Isuzu Trooper, locate the transmission dipstick tube, which is typically found near the back of the engine, close to the firewall. Remove the dipstick, and use a funnel to pour the appropriate type of transmission fluid into the tube. Ensure the fluid level is checked with the dipstick after adding, and only add fluid as necessary to reach the proper level. Always check the owner's manual for specific fluid type and capacity.
Yes. The tranny will not have enough fluid in it!
there is a drain plug and a fill plug on the underside of the transmission. you need to use the fill plug. You can not fill the transmission fluid or check the level, any other way.(it is a ridiculous design, i know.....) go to autozone.com look under Isuzu repair info, then choose the year and choose "trooper".then look under "fluids" the info will be there.
