2008 Isuzu i-290 Service and Repair Manual
The 2008 model year was the Isuzu i-290's last, and the LS trim was gone, leaving a single S extended-cab pickup with rear-wheel drive and the 2.9-liter DOHC inline-four rated at 185 horsepower. Isuzu announced its exit from light vehicles in North America during calendar 2009, so these trucks now rely on independent repair. This service and repair manual covers the 2008 i-290 with procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams, diagnostics and maintenance schedules matched to the final-year build.
Engines covered
- 2.9L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
Body styles covered
- 4-door extended cab pickup
Trims covered

Known issues on the 2008 i-290. Two recalls are on federal record: brake lamp switches that can be contaminated in hot-climate states so the brake lamps fail or stay on, and extended cabs with a front 60/40 bench and no rear seat whose center top tether anchor is not accessible. NHTSA also logs four owner complaints, including the electrical system, service brakes, steering and engine. The manual's brake lamp circuit diagrams and switch procedures support the fix.
