2013 Isuzu D-MAX Yukon D/C Intercooler TD 2.5L Diesel · SV13 DHJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive prevention. The most recent test in August 2025 at 115,030 miles passed only after a failure involving lighting alignment and suspension-related defects. While the vehicle cleared the latest inspection, the previous presence of a severely deteriorated offside front suspension arm ball joint dust cover and a worn rear shock absorber bush suggests that mechanical components are only addressed once they reach the point of inspection failure. The recorded mileage of 115,030 miles over 13 years reflects an average usage of approximately 8,850 miles per year, which is consistent with a diesel commercial of this age. The data shows steady usage patterns, with roughly 15,000 miles covered between July 2023 and August 2024, and another 15,000 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. This consistent accumulation suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which generally prevents the degradation of rubber components and seals from long stationary periods. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension and wheel bearings, as the tester flagged wheel bearings with slight play in 2023 and a ball joint failure in 2025. These issues indicate developing wear in the steering and hub assembly that requires close monitoring to ensure no further play has developed in the bushings. Additionally, the history of tyre damage and perished rubber in 2023 suggests the previous owner may have neglected basic consumable upkeep, so the current tread depth and sidew integrity of all tyres should be verified for cracking or structural cuts.
