Buying Tips for the 2014 Isuzu D-Max (Mk2)

  • On the 2.5-litre twin-turbo models, check the service history carefully; neglected oil changes can lead to premature turbo failure.
  • Inspect the chassis and undercarriage for severe rust or off-road impact damage; they are frequently used in harsh agricultural environments.
  • Test the clutch on manual models; heavy towing will drastically shorten the life of the clutch and dual-mass flywheel.
  • Check the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) status; vehicles used only for short trips around a farm will frequently block the filter.
  • Verify the engagement of the 4WD system; the electronic actuator on the transfer box can fail if rarely used.
