Looks, space and comfortable.
Poor quality Turbo and inter cooler units. Nissan customer service.
My Nissan X-Trail 2.2 DCI Sport Turbo Diesel is nearly two years old and has 30,000 miles on the clock. I have owned it for the past 15 months and traveled 19,000 miles with it. I do not know its history before I bought it, but since I have had it, it is on its second intercooler and third turbo unit, all replaced under warranty. When I contacted Nissan customer centre, they said they would consider fitting a replacement unit as a goodwill gesture after the warranty expired, but would not promise this. I bought this car for my retirement and was going to run it for several years, but I am afraid that due to the poor quality of the above parts, I will not be able to afford to do this when the warranty runs out, so, it must go, which is a pity, as I like the look of the car and it is the perfect size and layout for my requirements. One last point, when the second turbo was fitted the MPG went from 38 to 32, and did not recover when the third was fitted, the dealers explanation was that the new turbo was more efficient? I would have thought a more efficient unit would give better fuel consumption.
