hey guys,

got a 3.2L Isuzu Trooper 1998 with a tranny problem (or gearbox dont know)

sometimes the automatic gear slips (only for 3rd and 4th) and wont grip again unless u reduce ur speed till 2nd gear kicks in.

u can drive for days with no problems, and sometimes it just starts the minute you begin to drive.


the "check transs" light always comes on, and doesnt go away till u turn off the car then on.

OBDII scanner didnt show anything.


any advise ???
doesnt seem mechanical since sometimes it works perfectly with no issues.

I don't know for sure, but the range sensor in those can cause issues. I would ask your question over at planetisuzoo, a pretty active forum with a lot of knowledgeable and helpful Isuzu enthusiasts.
