Sounds like you need to give that dealer a miss. Towing that sort of load the MUX won't even have noticed it was there. Rear main seal shouldn't be leaking so best you start on the warranty rollercoaster. Two years to have the ECO graphics work, that's a long gestation period.
Don’t worry about things you can’t change!

I thought the transmission fluid was black anyway?
2014 LST Ash Beige. SMM Steel canopy, Outback Drawers, dual battery with 2 x 160W solar panels (keeps the beers nice and cold), 135L tank, TJM T15 alloy bar with Xray-vision LED lights, Dumbo Clearview Mirrors. The ultimate tow truck.

I think the transmission fluid is pretty dark? Was there a reason you were changing it at 20,000 Kays?

Sounds like you need a wheel alignment. Pretty common on new vehicles sadly.

Leaking rear main seal was an issue on some of the earlier Isuzu's, it was very isolated, but yes Id be straight back to the dealer for warranty on that one.

Yes the ECO graphics take a while to grow tree's if thats what you mean? I havent looked at mine since the day I picked the vehicle up, does anyone?  :laughing7:

The early 200 series Cruisers took 2 years to 'bed in' the rings didnt they? Or at least thats what the dealers were saying to justify the oil consumption  :evil6:
