2012 Isuzu TF Rodeo Denvermax TD D/C 2.5L Diesel · AO61 KJK

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in March 2026 with no dangerous or major defects, though the tester recorded an advisory for the rear prop shaft joint being worn. This indicates the drivetrain is showing signs of fatigue but remains within safe limits for now. There is a clear and recurring pattern of wear developing in the rear suspension and undercarriage components. In 2022, the MOT history flagged slight wear in the rear leaf spring shackle pins and bushes on both sides. By 2025, this wear had shifted to the rear shock absorber bushes, which were also noted as slightly worn. The progression from leaf springs to dampers and now the prop shaft suggests the entire rear end is experiencing consistent stress. The condition trend appears to be stable but slowly worsening. While the truck has never failed a test, the advisories are accumulating across different connected systems. This suggests the vehicle is safe to drive but is entering a maintenance phase where these worn bushes and joints will likely need replacement soon to prevent further damage. With roughly 8,645 miles per year, this Isuzu has seen typical usage for its age.
