I have 2011 dmax and it is making a horrible squeeke that appears to be coming from under drivers seat, I have removed seat retentioned all bolts lubed up rails & lubed any moving party & refitted. The noise still there, I’ve been all over car can’t find it anywhere!! Anybody had this problem previously & can pass on suggestions please...... Paul

You have not said whether it is a Cab Chassis / Space Cab or Dual Cab. I have had no issues with squeaking from the seats in my Space Cab however, whilst the noise appears to be coming from under the drivers seat, it may be something loose on the centre console (assuming of course you have bucket seats), from the rear passenger seat on the drivers side or even a door trim item where plastic is rubbing on plastic.
I had this problem when I first got mine (2011). It required me to put a couple of 10 cent piece sized washers between the front left securing bolt to the floor on the transmission side (next to the tunnel), and re-tighten it. It worked and have had no noise since. Regards, Drohy.

2014 Dmax without canopy. The seal has deteriorated around the rear high mount stop light (the one above the back window) and now let's in water. With the recent rains (March 2018), I have had to check for goldfish each morning lately. Any ideas where to buy a replacement seal besides the local dealership? Ajm

I am thinking of getting out of my cruiser and trying a d max for towing our caravan,
average around 16 lts to 100 ks touring, can someone tell how this would compare to ad max?
our van is around 1500 ks
4 answers
Can't comment personally about a van but inlaws have a one around that weight and only use around 13L/100 I think.
Fully loaded for work I'm at 2.7T and use 9.5/100 regularily. When I tow a trailer for work occasionally (800-1000kgs) goes up to around 12/100.
We have just finished a trip around Australia in our 2012 Dmax towing a 2.5 ton van average fuel for the trip was 16.5 overall.
i tow with a 2016 dmax for a living 4000 a week if i seat on 90kmh 11 /100, seat on 100kmh 13/100,using the manual side of auto towing 2.5 plus ton, must be pushed hard

I have a 2017 Dmax which is being serviced every 10,000km but have notice the oil level is down half way between services. Dealer says check it after you have been parked for 10 minutes. Anyone else having this issue?

hi, check oil 5000 and than every 1000 until 10000, to find out when it start using oil, if it user oil between 5000 and 10000 change the oil brand

I have a 2017 SX dual cab and want to fit a bulbar. My question is has anyone fitted a bar without upgrading front springs/shocks and if so which bar? Does the OEM Isuzu bar require an upgrade?
Thanks
2 answers
The genuine bar is alloy and pretty light but also not winch compatible and shouldn't require any suspension upgrade, if you are looking at a winch in the future look at the ARB Sahara bar, it's winch compatible and steel construction but might need a heavy spring upgrade .
Thanks for the info

Join the Isuzu Dmax/MU-X owners group on Facebook, I'm sure it's been covered before, could be as simple as a bad battery .

I have a 2014 D-Max. This morning I did the main 120APM FUSE so I replaced it and now the radio won’t work any ideas what might be wrong?
2 answers
First step check the radio fuse as well.
But also, why did the other fuse blow???
Do yourself a favour and join the Isuzu Dmax,MU-X owners group Australia on Facebook and take advantage of the knowledge base, I hav'nt come across your problem, often one fuse covers many applications so check them all .

I recenently bought an Isuzu Dmax 2018 and when I turn my lights on my dashboard doesn’t light up which makes it difficult to see what speed I’m going at night time. Everything else goes lights up red when the lights are on except the speedo, does anyone know how to turn them on? Could this be a fault?
1 answer
It should dim somehow,have a look in the owners manual.
My dash lights are also quite dim with the lights on. cheers

Hi, I have a 2013 Dmax 4 door. It is getting very dark here in the North (Norway) and the fact that the interior/doom light has a delayed switch-off is very annoying. For many other cars it turns it self off after the engine is started, this is not the case on the Dmax, the light stays on long after I have started to drive. Does anybody have a suggestion how to remove the delay or alternatively reduce it?
2 answers
manually turn it off
Living very close to the North pole so it is dark almost 24-7 4 months every year. Nice to have som light..
