Question Details Asked:Jan 16, 2013 - 01:17 AMStatus:Closed

arvarv	Isuzu Rodeo popping out of 4h issue. Did you solve your isuzu Rodeo issue? (pop out of 4h). If so how? 2000 Rodeo. I just got it Tuesday from a 1 owner. At that time no snow or ice was on the road. I drove it Saturday 12-06-08 on the snow for the 1st time. It was doing good and out of the blue the 4 wheel drive lever on the floor went into neutral by itself and I had to stop and put the lever back into high range. But a few miles later it did the same thing. So at that point I took it out of 4 wheel drive and it stays in 2 wheel drive just fine. I waited awhile and tried again and it did the same thing. If my Rodeo was low on transfer case oil which may have caused the 4 wheel drive lever on the floor to go in neutral, could that also make my check engine light come on? What could be my problem? thank you, doolin

I'd start with simple things first---check your front tires to make SURE they are the exac same size and brand. If they aren't, that could cause this.

There are other possibilities of course--maybe you should also check the shift lever itself for a worn bushing, etc--meaning it might not be engaging fully into 4H.
