Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Isuzu D-Max Workman + Owners

These checks follow this Isuzu D-Max Workman +'s own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Isuzu D-Max Workman +.

• the shock absorbers — “shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush”

  Press down hard on each corner of the car and let go. It should settle in one bounce; if it keeps rocking, or you can see oil weeping down a shock absorber, that is the fault a tester will find.

• the lights — “malfunction indicator lamp inoperative or indicates a malfunction”

  Switch everything on and walk round the car: both headlamps on dip and main, every indicator, both brake lights, reverse, fog and the two number-plate lamps. A bulb is a few pounds and a five-minute job.

• the wipers and washers — “wipers blade defective”

  Run the wipers with the screen wet: they should clear it in one sweep without smearing or juddering. Top the washer bottle up and check both jets hit the screen.
