2017 Isuzu D-MAX 1.9L Diesel · SN67 XZD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a concerning trend regarding structural corrosion and electrical faults. While it passed the most recent test on 13 May 2026 at 54,982 miles, it failed that same day due to an ABS warning lamp and multiple chassis-related defects. The presence of the ABS fault light indicates a persistent sensor or module issue that was not rectified despite the failure, necessitating a diagnostic check of the braking system. At 54,982 miles, the D-Max has averaged approximately 6,100 miles per year. This relatively low usage is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle and suggests light-duty use rather than heavy commercial working. The mileage accumulation between tests is steady, with roughly 6,300 miles covered between October 2023 and February 2025, though the low mileage does not insulate the vehicle from environmental degradation factors. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the chassis. The May 2026 test identified corrosion on the rear suspension spring mountings and the crossmember; while deemed not excessive at the time, structural rust in these areas often accelerates if untreated. The crossmember in front of the rear artwork is a critical point for structural integrity and should be closely monitored to ensure the corrosion does not progress beyond surface level. The braking system shows a history of neglect, with corroded enough pipes noted in 2022 at 39,338 miles and again in 2023 at 44,362 miles. These pipes were covered in grease, which can mask further decay. Additionally, with front wheel bearings flagged for play and noise in 2022, the buyer should verify that these were replaced and that the current ABS fault has been addressed to ensure the safety systems function correctly.
