Clutch and/or gearbox worn after less than 26,500 miles!


General Comments

I bought my Nissan Navara D22 King Cab new from main dealer in March 2005 and to date, (Dec 2008) I have done less than 26,500 miles.
I ONLY transport dogs in the back (snugtop) and that is the reason for buying it in the first place as I do dog rescue.
I took it for its service last week and since then it drives like rubbish!
Since getting it back, when I accelerate and once the turbo kicks in, the engine just revs up without building the speed up (3rd & 4th gears only).
Its booked back in to the garage for a week's time but they tell me if its the clutch then it will be about £1K to get it fixed and if its the gearbox, then it will be £5K or £6K to get it fixed!
They also say it is not a defect, that sometimes clutch and gearboxes wear like this so I will have to pay for it to be fixed myself!
If I can ever afford to buy a new car again, it will NOT be a Nissan, that is for sure!
I've had cars do over 100,000 miles without having a gearbox or clutch problem.
