Isuzu D-Max: Engine won't rev
It would suggest it wasn’t the throttle position sensor that was faulty, but it could be a connector to the sensor that has caused the problem. If that isn’t the problem look elsewhere, and I would suggest the crank angle sensor.
Isuzu D-Max: Engine making noise
We haven't had any other reports on the D-Max, but we have had reports on other makes. Toyota had lots of issues with diesels, which was related to the fuel-injectors. The first one I heard I thought had the death rattles. I wouldn't have believed it was related to the fuel-injectors, but replacing them fixed this car, at least for a time. I would go back to Isuzu and tell them you're not happy and want your car fixed.

It's a common complaint about diesels since we went to common-rail engines. Some claim it can be fixed be recalibrating the computer, others say the injectors need replacing. Consult a diesel engine expert.
Isuzu D-Max: Do I need to change my coolant?
Coolant should be changed regularly, annually at least, but the interval should be shown in your service book. It can look a little oily, but that's not a problem, and as your vehicle is running well with no sign of a problem I wouldn't be concerned, but do change the coolant.
