Owner notes

The reassuring points, known weak spots and deadlines you should not let slip.

Reassuring points

Reliability
  • The eight-foot Durabed cargo floor combined with the practical Double Cab cabin delivers maximum commercial utility and crew seating.
  • The Duramax L5P and Allison 10-speed transmission deliver immense pulling power and effortless hill-climbing torque under heavy payloads.
  • The 6.6-litre L8T petrol V8 provides a robust, low-maintenance alternative for regional fleets not requiring diesel emissions hardware.
  • Modern T1XX high-strength steel frame delivers exceptional torsional rigidity and heavy-duty front and rear axle weight ratings.

Chronic weak spots

Keep an eye on
  • Allison 10-speed transmission: verify transmission software updates have been applied, inspect fluid condition, and check gear changes.
  • Duramax L5P emissions equipment: inspect DEF tank heater operation, check urea injector for crystallization, and monitor NOx sensors.
  • Dual rear wheel axle: inspect full-floating wheel hub seals, check outer and inner tyre pressures, and check wheel nut torque.
  • Heavy-duty commercial bed and frame: inspect cargo bed crossmembers, fifth-wheel mounting plates, and rear hitch receiver for fatigue.
  • Front suspension and steering: inspect torsion bar mountings, wishbone ball joints, and tie rod ends for commercial site-induced wear.

Critical deadlines

Do not miss
  • Service Allison 10-speed transmission fluid and filter every 45,000 km under arduous commercial trailer towing conditions.
  • Renew diesel fuel filter elements every 20,000 km using certified OEM filtration to protect common-rail fuel components.
  • Change heavy rear differential oil, front axle lubricant, and transfer case fluid every 50,000 km.
  • Lubricate all front suspension ball joints, steering linkages, and prop-shaft universal joints at every engine oil change.
