we have a 2.2dci xtrail,it is the 136bhp model(6mts old)we have a strange noise which starts at approx 2300rpm when under load.we are wondering if any other x-trial users have this problem as nissan say they know there is a problem but dont know how to solve it

There was a problem with the timing chain that sounds like what you describe.We had that done on the first X but Nissan know about that.Hope you get it sorted successfully
