2019 Isuzu D-MAX 1.9L Diesel · GX19 VOP

The 2019 Isuzu D-MAX presents a mixed maintenance picture as of its most recent MOT on 20 March 2026 at 47,874 miles. That pass came with a cluster of advisories signalling a worsening trend in front-end and suspension wear. Both front inner brake discs were in very poor condition, the offside front upper anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover was severely deteriorated, and the nearside rear lower shock absorber bush was flagged as worn. These items suggest the vehicle has spent recent months accumulating wear faster than it has been corrected, particularly at the front axle. The mileage progression is broadly linear and typical for a working pick-up of this age. It moved from 27,555 miles on 3 April 2023 to 33,875 miles on 2 April 2024, then to 43,298 miles on 7 April 2025, and finally to 47,874 miles on 20 March 2026. That is roughly 5,500 to 9,400 miles per year, with the steeper jump between April 2024 and April 2025. There are no large gaps in the record to suggest prolonged standing, but the increasing advisory count at each test implies heavier recent use without a corresponding lift in preventive maintenance. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension and brake components. The recurring front inner brake disc advisories, from slightly poor in April 2025 to very poor by March 2026, point to either aggressive use, a dragging caliper, or discs that have been left beyond their serviceable thickness for too long. The deteriorating anti-roll bar linkage dust cover and worn shock absorber bushes indicate the front end has taken knocks, likely from load carrying or rough terrain. Inspect the subframe, crossmembers, and inner wing lower edges for corrosion, as these areas often suffer on working pick-ups that see mud and road salt. Check the condition of all four tyres carefully, given the repeated advisories for cracking and perishing across multiple tests, which suggests they may have been left to age rather than replaced proactively.
