Colorado problem

Correct me if I am wrong, but shane086 may have voided his warranty. From earlier posts I think Shane installed a modified exhaust, a rather large one. If so then it could be hard to ask for another car.

I would have the same problem if something went wrong with my running gear, having done some mods to it.

All in all he has had a bad run of luck Cheers Tony

na... rang them it doesnt void it

Be interesting to see the mechanics report :-) Cheers Tony

I agree AJB.
I've just gone from a 4.0 Ltr Falcon auto, to a 3.2 TD Triton manual. Took a couple of weeks to get the head around how to drive it, as it's my first diesel.Took a couple of kg's of lead out of the right foot and now all is good!
The advert is right. I 'love that car'.

look...first upp it isnt my fault even holden said so wen i got the first clutch done no its not my first bloody manual either i drive a iszuzu 200 at work and thats fine i drive tractors at work all fine all day everyday at work its a problem with this car ask any colorado owner from what i hear there is one up at cairns with the same problems one down south had to get a new gearbox.

i dont drive it hard at all change gears just under 2000RPM and its fine oh yea becouse getin stuck makes the clutch go it was going before then anyways duh should have asked before sayin that oh yea i go out to the drag strip all the time drag off nissan navaras all the time redline man pfff same that people that know nothing about problems like this reply to things that they dont know anything about

Good one, Stu-k, I quite agree. Apparently Colorado clutch assemblies & front
brake assemblies werent able to be sourced from Isuzu for Colorados & some
dud gear was substituted. I believe local dealers are now fitting the original
Rodeo/Dmax gear as replacement under warranty. A young friend has had both replaced. His gearbox is rattling & has been told to drive it till it breaks & they will fit a new one from Isuzu under warranty. Cant fix it now as only option is
to repair not replace unless it sh*ts itself. I think Shane is being dudded, adding
thick oil is a copout.......oldbaz.

Thats no answer - Not everyone is made of dollars - Cheers tony

The rich get richer the poor get poorer.....resale

see my gearbox hasnt been rite when i got my clutch done and was rite to go i hoped in my car and went to change it from 1st to reverse it wouldent go change at all... was stuck in 1st i dont know how they got it out of 1st but when they did they had to keep it for the weekend and for 2 days said it was somthing broken in the clutch so they had to pull it all apart again from then on the crunching had been getting worse and worse in the mornings feels like i got no clutch at all

yeah know like wen i told them about my gears crunching heaps and they took it for a "test drive" and couldent foult it...its crap as they have it wen it hot in the mornings or wen it been sitting all day it sounds like there is no clutch there at all somtimes...and wen i said to the sate manager so i hear your using dmax running gear "oh...umm thats correct" so why dont they frigging recall all of em it turning into a bloody navara so bloody over it

Hi Shaneo86, no offence mate but is it some sort of SMS language you are using.
I am no genius but it has me stumped what you are on about sometimes, try the spell check it may not let you down.

And don't give up mate make the bastards fix your Colorado.

PS: has it got a Sports Bar and Tonneau cover? :)

yea yea i know spelling bad and yes i use sms alot alot... joins into everything i do anyways na got rid of the tub well not really tryin to sell that swaped it for a alloy tray beta resale later on the state manager didnt like it wen i said about holden using dmax stuff now gearboxes and so on askin how i knew about it.

this morning the gearbox was clucking loud AS.. when i was driving it was stuck in between 2nd and N got it on my phone crunching on the spot

waiting all bloody day for the state mager to call me to talk about this problem...5pm i get a call look does it smell oily "hmmm yea strong as.." ok take it to the dealer "it shuts at 530" got there at 536 and all i got was hmm we will book it in for monday and then walking back to my car the forman was outside and said to him mate this shipbox is using a heap of oil "oh thats no good and rushed off"
