NISSAN X-TRAIL Used Car Review

The X-Trail has established itself as one of the most popular Nissan models since its 2001 introduction. It continues to share its platform and other components with its Qashqai/Dualis stablemate, as well as the Renault Koleos SUV as part of the giant Renault-Nissan alliance. The Nissan X-Trail featured a boxy, trad-4WD look for its first two generations before the latest model adopted curvier lines in acknowledgement of its primary role as urban transport.

Servicing

SIMILAR MODELS TO NISSAN X-TRAIL

WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR: NISSAN X-TRAIL (2007 to 2013)

Because these were big inside compared with the competition, many X-Trails were used by pet owners and mountain bikers. Combine that with the hard-plastic interior trim that was easily scratched and an X-Trail can quickly look pretty shabby inside.

If the steering wheel or column starts making a noise, pull over and stop the car. There was a recall for a bolt that connected the steering system, which could come loose and finally jump ship altogether and, if that happened, the vehicle suddenly lost its steering.

The diesel X-Trail is, like many others of its sort, prone to blocking up of its soot filter if the vehicle has been used for short, urban journeys. Nissan developed a new program for the computer that altered the way the EGR valve works, reducing this problem, but it's still something to investigate in a second-hand example.

Many dealers uploaded this new software during routine servicing and the owner never even knew about it. But it's worth having the upgrade done as it also liberates a bit more power.
