Nissan X-Trail 2021
Carsguide Family reviewer Nedahl Stelio had this to say at the time: I really enjoyed driving the Nissan X-Trail Ti. While the interior isn't as fancy as some in this category, it’s spacious for a mid-size SUV, with a large boot, and the feature that tipped it over for me - all-wheel drive. It's something plenty of the X-Trail's competitors don't have, and it means it’s safer on unstable surfaces. It makes you feel more secure while driving, and with a family, that’s invaluable.Â

Engine light still appearing on dashboard after service
This is probably because who ever serviced the car failed to manually switch off the service-engine reminder light. This is often done via a scan-tool through the diagnostic port.
But in the case of your car, you should be able to do it yourself. Turn on the ignition and you’ll see that the service light is illuminated. With the ignition still on (but the motor not running) press the small button that you’d normally twist to control the brightness of the dashboard lights. After a few seconds, the service light should start to flash. Release the button and then give it a single push (but don’t hold it). Now turn the ignition off. If you’ve got the sequence correct, the next time you turn on the ignition, the service reminder light should have disappeared.

Does the 2017 Nissan X-Trail have a CVT?
Bad news. That generation of X-Trail had a six-speed manual option on the base-model two-litre petrol, front-wheel-drive model and on the all-wheel-drive turbo-diesel. But if you wanted an X-Trail with an automatic gearbox, then it was a CVT or nothing.

Gear box in my 2011 Nissan X-Trail is shuddering
The absolute best thing you can do now is get the car to an automatic transmission specialist. The shuddering could be caused by wear in the bands and clutches that control the gears or from damage or wear in some other part of the transmission or even somewhere in the rest of the driveline. It might even be a problem with the torque converter.
The fact that the level of fluid had dropped suggests a leak somewhere in the system that also needs to be fixed. But continuing to drive the vehicle in this state is likely to cause further damage.

Transmission issues while towing a caravan with a 2015 Nissan X-Trail 1.6 DCI CVT
Actually, this is simply how a CVT operates. When you load the engine (and towing a caravan is a great way to do that) the transmission will switch to a lower ratio in order to keep the engine in its comfort zone and making enough power to keep everything moving at the speed at which you’ve set the cruise control. Because there are no set ratios in a CVT, this can sound a feel very alien when it happens. It's one of the things many people dislike about CVTs.
When you turn off the cruise control and allow the throttle to return to idle, the car detects that the crisis is over and changes the ratio to allow the engine to slow down as less power is needed. And that’s why it all feels like it’s returning to normal. But, really, what you’re hearing and feeling is just the CVT doing its thing.
