The Vauxhall Frontera, a rugged and capable Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV), was produced by the British automaker Vauxhall Motors from 1991 to 2004. The 1998 and 1999 models, the focus of this workshop manual, represent the second generation of the Frontera, boasting a refined design and enhanced performance compared to its predecessor. While sharing its underpinnings with the Isuzu Rodeo and Opel Frontera, the Vauxhall Frontera carved its own niche in the European market, offering a blend of off-road prowess and on-road comfort. This generation of the Frontera, available in both three-door and five-door body styles, was powered by a range of robust and reliable engines, including the 2.2-liter Isuzu 4JB1 diesel and the 2.0-liter and 2.2-liter petrol engines. Its unibody construction and rigid ladder frame provided a sturdy foundation, capable of handling demanding terrain.
The 1998 and 1999 Vauxhall Frontera models were designed for both urban and rural environments, offering spacious interiors accommodating up to five passengers. The interior was functional and well-equipped, featuring features like power windows, central locking, and air conditioning. The Frontera's versatility was further enhanced by its available 4WD system, ensuring sure-footedness on slippery surfaces and off-road trails. The 1998 and 1999 models benefited from several updates, including improved safety features, a more refined suspension setup, and enhanced build quality. The Vauxhall Frontera, however, was not without its flaws. Some critics pointed to its outdated styling and relatively high fuel consumption compared to its competitors. Nevertheless, the Frontera found a loyal following among those seeking a capable and durable SUV for everyday driving and occasional off-road adventures. The 1998 and 1999 models, documented in this workshop manual, serve as a testament to the Frontera's enduring appeal and its legacy as a true British-built rugged vehicle.
