Isuzu D-MAX

Used daily, purchased mainly to tow my 5 metre boat which it does with no fuss. I drove performane cars for 15 years for a living and this vehicle has the best brakes of any car that I have ever driven. Stops on a dime. Heaps of power and great acceleration. Has been serviced every 10000 kms at Isuzu Ute Gympie, great people.

Used for everyday use and a few weekends away on trails. Generally handles well both on and off road. We have had a few issues with the ute so far since getting it mid 2021. There were some computer issues that took a few days at the service centre to sort out. The paint is very thin and a few spots of rust have appeared on the bonnet after presumably a couple of stone chips. Now it has just thrown a belt for the second time in the last 2 weeks, even just after having it in for it’s 30k service. Not sure if this is caused by a more serious engine issue just yet.

Travelled to southern Victoria and now the front wheel hubs seals decided to leak grease. Had to get it repaired at Warrnambool Isuzu and guess what, yep you guessed it, these are not covered under warranty. Just like the growing list of failures as described in previous reviews

Purchased in April 2021 lzusu D Max LSU 3L Turbo Diesel fitted with bull bar, winch, roof rack, and twin battery system.
This is my best purchase of a motor vehicle, easy to drive and has all the comforts to be able to relax and drive your vehicle on any trip you have planned. The seats really hugh into your body, the steering wheel is excellent with professional hand positioning that works very good. The 3L turbo diesel has plenty of power as l recently towed my new boat over the mountains to the Port Albert and you could hardly feel that you ...

i had the same issue , but where i bought my Mazda BT50 2021 (Isuzu d max 2021) they fixed the problem it was the alternator causing all the issues ,had to wait as supply issues from overseas but all good now.

Vehicle has lots of issues and warranty not worth the paper it's written on. Purchased from Goulburn Isuzu December 2018 and issues started before vehicle was delivered. Wrong colour tray fitted, Tow bar not correct. Weather shields fell off when driving home, Tow bar loose, Gearbox crunches, 4 gearboxes fitted so far, Park brake cable support brackets broke off, Wheel sensor failed, Turbo failed, Suspension collapsed, Drivers window not working correctly, Remote for door lock has intermittent fault, Drivers seat collapsed, Fuel filler is at w...

Aircon suddenly died, turbo failure. Isuzu service center warwick qld done a valve adjustment now its leaking oil. Towed to them and still thesame. To much time off to work because of this crap

Bought new just over 5 years ago and had no issues. Only taken to dealer for servicing and have no complaints. As others have said the key switches are too easy to switch accidentally and the drivers window switch goes to auto too easily (very annoying) and key in ignition with door open beeper can be annoying. Bought it for travelling and towing which does perfectly. Speak to other travellers with same car they have nothing but praise for their car also. Has 65k and still on original tyres, brakes, battery never had wheel alignment or a/c trouble. No even a flat tyre!

Bought my D-Max from the Warwick dealership 3 months ago. Living somewhat remotely I rely on my vehicle on a daily basis. I also use it to tow my horse float.

The sales process was great, but the minute I drove the car out of the dealership the trouble started. The first issue was the tow package they put on. For a vehicle and tow package rated to tow 3.5T, you can’t get anything larger than a 1250kg shackle on it. Dealership were very unhelpful.

The big issues started when the car completely lost power driving home from work. Up until this...

I use cruise control in all my cars everyday for safety of speeding.
Also I purchased this Ute for its 5 star safety rating.When it rains Or has been raining I get 3 error lights on the dash which disengages the cruise and crash midagation due to the clean windscreen needing cleaning ?? My Ute has 2,000klms on it and this has happened 25 times.
Today another error for DPD ,when I speak to Isuzu they say they all do this .What a load of rubbish. I did buy 5 star rated car with cruise control not to be able to use it..
Pathetic to say the least,I have lodged a complaint with Isuzu Australia and booked the car in to be looked at.I expect then to tell me they all do this again which consumer affairs will be contacted.
All

Fantastic Ute - tech is first rate & vehicle really does the job but why oh why with all this effort
Do we have to put up with notchy sometime so difficult gearbox,??? At least in 1st/2nd/Reverse so far. Bargain price though all the same so glad i did not drive one before purchase,!! Might have ended up spending a heap more!!

C'mon Isuzu.... you're almost there.

This is the best looking Ute of its class on the market at the moment. As far as everything else is concerned read the reviews,they all can’t be wrong can they?

I am retired I do drive car most days and tow a caravan a lot always have car serviced no issues with car towes great I would recommend if you’re towing

Great, smooth drive, feels like I’m driving a sedan not a 4WD. Comfortable seating. The only problem I have had so far is the engine light came on the second day of owning, rang Service Center booked in for next morning, engine light had gone out but staff were more than happy to take a look at it anyway. Has not missed a beat just love it. The biggest problem I have now is trying to stay out of it.

I use my car to tow a 2100 kg Caravan as well as transport around town
The car gets used daily
It gets serviced normally 10000 ks however when towing get serviced every 5000 ks we have had no problems. Fuel economy around town exceptional
