2015 Isuzu D-MAX 2.5L Diesel · HV64 HBJ

The Isuzu D-Max currently holds a failed MOT status from the 9 April 2026 test at 76,544 miles, with the DVSA record showing no defects logged against that failure. Prior to this, the truck passed every annual test from April 2023 through April 2025 with no advisories or defects recorded, so the underlying maintenance trend looked clean and stable until the most recent examination. The sudden fail with no listed defects is irregular and points to either a documentation omission at the test centre or a non-mechanical refusal such as documentation or identifier mismatch rather than obvious wear. Mileage progression across the history is consistent and unremarkable for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 42,042 miles on 5 April 2023, rising to 54,354 by 3 April 2024, then 67,683 on 3 April 2025, and 76,544 at the April 2026 failure. That equates to roughly 9,000 to 11,000 miles per year with no gaps or sudden accumulation spikes. Annual usage stayed steady and the low overall total of 76,544 miles suggests lighter-than-average duty for a D-Max, likely reducing strain on drivetrain and suspension components. The April 2023 history shows a fail on 4 April at 42,042 miles followed by a pass on 5 April at the same mileage, with no defects captured for either entry. This pattern implies a same-week rectification of an unspecified fault, but without stated defects the exact system cannot be confirmed from the data. Buyers should still treat the 2026 failure as live and demand the official failure sheet before purchase. Given the clean advisory history, no corrosion, brake, suspension, or exhaust issues were formally flagged across the passes. In person, the buyer should verify structural integrity underneath the chassis, check suspension bushes and coil springs for off-road wear, and confirm the April 2026 failure cause is resolved with a fresh pass. The unexplained failure warrants caution despite the otherwise tidy record.
