Nissan X-TRAIL 2019 Problems

No, it doesn’t. Nissan dropped the 1.6-litre turbo-diesel with the facelift in 2017, replacing g it with a two-litre unit that was both more powerful (96kW plays 130kW) and had more torque (320NM versus 380). Beyond those numbers, the progress was a bit harder to see as the later, two-litre engine used quite a bit more fuel (7.4 litres per 100km against 5.3 litres for the 1.6-litre engine) and was only available as an all-wheel-drive vehicle and with a six-speed manual transmission. The earlier, 1.6-litre X-Trail was available with a CVT transmission (two-pedal operation) but if you chose that transmission, the vehicle was front-wheel-drive only.

Yes, you can, providing of course it’s the petrol engine and not the diesel.

It’s possible water has got into something in the engine bay when you were cleaning it, and I doubt it would come good just by driving it. Get it to a dealer or mechanic to have it checked.

Nissan sell their Rogue (or X-Trail in Australia) in a variety of drive configurations. This includes front wheel drive (in both ST and ST-L trim), as well as 4WD in ST, ST-L, Ti, TL, TS model trim.

Cars today are safer and more secure than ever before, which actually becomes a problem should you lose your keys or lock them inside the car itself. The only way to fix these issues is to either call a locksmith who specialises in automotive keys and security, or have the car towed to the nearest dealer where they can open the car, sell you a new key for it and programme it to your particular vehicle.

The Nissan Rogue towing capacity is listed as 1500kg of braked trailer and 750kg unbraked, for all variants. This includes petrol and diesel, and both front wheel and four wheel drives.

Depending on how you treat it a Nissan Rogue (X-Trail in other markets) will last many tens of thousands of miles before needing any major components replaced, the same as any other well-built modern car. Service the car regularly and drive with sympathy and the Nissan SUV should repay you with reliable service.

Lift the tab on the back of your Nissan X-Trail (AKA Nissan Rogue) smartkey and remove the manual key shaft. Take a small flathead screwdriver and gently pry apart the key body using the small niches on the side of the key. Pop out the battery, replace it with a new #2032 battery (positive side down), the clip the key back together and refit the manual key.  If your key is brand new to your car you will now need to look up how to program a Nissan Rogue key fob.

Nissan X-Trail, known as the Nissan Rogue in North America, has been a staple of the compact SUV class since it first landed on Aussie shores. With regular servicing and sympathetic driving the Nissan crossover four-wheel-drive should last you many years of reliable motoring. Don't expect it to be any good in serious off-road conditions, but light beach or firetrail duties should be fine if you prepare accordingly.

The Nissan Rogue is built in the Smyrna assembly facility, located in the USA in Tennessee.
