1994 Isuzu Rodeo 215,000K
V6, Std 5 spd w/air
What's been replaced
Harmonic balancer at 83K
3 clutchs ($800 each)
1 radiator at 96K (plastic tank started leaking ... replace with metal rad.)
A/C compressor at 105K (clutch failed .. surface wore away)
2 timing belts - 2 water pumps (1st at 113K and 2nd @ 212K .. was leaking at change)
2 alternators (one in 1999 at 100K) (one now)
1 transmission ...Junk Yard replacement $700 installed @ 140K (rear seal leaked all the 30 wt sae oil out over a period of time)
1 upper and lower ball joint at 212K driver's side.
Wouldn't pass emissions... fuel system wouldn't pressurize. Fixed by dropping tank and tightening the screws that hold the pump in the tank.
Spark plug wires go bad every 40-50K ... engine starts to miss when you bog the engine. Gets worse until you change the wires. Autozone life time warranty is a good thing
Had one set of brakes ... were change at 194K ... honest ... ceramic really does go that long.
All the little water hoses on the top of the engine were leaking at 200K and were replaced. You have to remove the top half of intake manifold to get to the hoses that are in the rear and under it. Heater core is plastic and the fittings where the hoses attach at the firewall will and did break off. Careful
Needs paint now and I am seriously considering doing it because I think this thing will last forever.
