If you’re unsure about the wear condition of your Isuzu D-Max engine, we invite you to follow these tips.
- Stick to a regular maintenance
Change the oil on time, flush the coolant, and replace filters as needed to keep your engine in top shape.
- Drive smart
Opt for highway driving when possible. Frequent stop-and-go traffic or rough off-road conditions put extra strain on the engine.
- Use quality fuel
Fill up with high-quality diesel to prevent carbon buildup and injector problems that can shorten engine life.
- Let the engine breathe
Warm up the engine of your pick-up before driving and allow the turbo to cool down before shutting off to avoid unnecessary wear.
- Watch your load
Avoid overloading or excessive towing, as both can push the engine beyond its limits and reduce its longevity.
