2022 Isuzu Trucks Grafter N35.125 1.9L Diesel · FN22 BKF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While it passed its latest test in May 2026 at 55,837 miles, the tester identified several brake-related advisories that were absent in the previous year. The appearance of thin inner pads and worn front brake discs on both sides indicates that the braking system is reaching the end of its effective service life and requires immediate attention. The vehicle has accumulated a significant mileage for its age, averaging approximately 14,000 miles per annum. Between the May 2025 test at 42,802 miles and the May 2026 test, the Grafter covered 13,035 miles in just twelve months. This high annual mileage suggests consistent commercial use, which explains the accelerated wear on consumable components like the braking system but implies the vehicle has been subjected to heavy loads or long-distance cycles. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front braking system to ensure the noted discs and pads are replaced immediately upon purchase. Since the tester flagged both nearside and offside components, it is essential to check for uneven wear or binding calipers that could accelerate component degradation. Given the high mileage, the physical inspection should also target the suspension bushes and shock absorbers for signs of play, as these components often fatigue under the stress of high-mileage commercial operations.
