Holden Rodeo 2005 FAQs

Does the 2005 Holden Rodeo come with an intercooler?

Yes it did. In order to produce the engine’s 96kW and 280Nm of torque (291Nm in automatic form), Holden - or rather Isuzu, who engineered the vehicle and provided the driveline - used an intercooler to achieve that level of performance.

The factory intercooler was a top-mount (mounted on top of the engine) and there are plenty of aftermarket alternatives when it comes time for replacement. Some owners also choose to fit a front-mounted intercooler for better performance, although in an off-roader like the Rodeo, this can place the intercooler in harm’s way in an off-road scenario.

Problems with the fuel gauge in my 2005 Holden Rodeo

This is very possibly a fault with the power supply to the fuel pump rather than the pump itself. The clue is that the fuel gauge started playing games just before the engine shut down. The fuel gauge is controlled by the sender which is usually in the tank with the pump. They’re often supplied power by the same wiring. So any problem with the power to the fuel pump would also possibly show up as a fuel gauge that’s making strange movements.

Start by checking the power supply to the pump, but don’t rule out a poor earth somewhere in there as well. Even though the fuse is okay, if the power wire or earth wire is loose/corroded/faulty/dirty/short-circuiting, then you may have found the problem.

Holden Rodeo 2005: What brand is best for gas conversion?

HOLDEN offered a dual-fuel system for the RA Rodeo with the 3.5-litre V6 engine and that's the one I would recommend. It was developed by Impco and sold through Holden dealers. The warranty will be affected by modifications made to install the system. That means Holden won't cover the engine and other parts of the car that have been modified. You need to talk to the person installing the system to see what cover they provide for the equipment they supply and the work they do.
