Nissan X-trail - stuttering - svm
Hi

I would be grateful for any views from the mechanics out there.

We have just collected a brand new Nissan X-trail. After 2 weeks of driving, the engine is prone to intermitant stuttering, whether we are pulling away or cruising in the motorway. It feels as if the engine is hesitating at times. Nissan took the car last week and it drove fine with them and they carried out a diagnostic check which did not find any immediate faults. It feels like the fuel is not getting through properly at times - but then I'm not a mechanic!

Like I mentioned, it is intermitant. Saturday it drove perfectly and then on Sunday it started playing up. Nissan will take another look this week. Whilst it is frustrating for us if they cannot find any faults, I do appreciate it can be difficult for them to trace. It's just sod's law if they drive it and the engine decides to play up.

The engine is a diesel and we are following HJ's running in guidance.

Thanks.
