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

Air-conditioning problems in 2016 Nissan X-Trail T32
This sounds more like a control problem that one with the actual compressor. The body computer is often at fault in cases like this. Part of the body computer’s job is to control things like central locking, power windows and the climate control gear. The fact that the system is cycling between fresh air and recycled air makes us suspect the computer as the culprit. Has this been checked?
Hopefully, you first raised this issue with Nissan all those years ago when the vehicle was still under warranty. If so, then you have what is called a pre-existing condition and even though the car is now out of warranty, Nissan is still obliged to fix it as if the warranty still applied.

Knocking noise in 2015 Nissan X-Trail diesel engine
There's often a disparity between what a car is insured for and what it might be worth on the second-hand market. In any case, with a worn out engine, its market value would be next to nothing anyway. And with 290,000km on its odometer, you might have trouble finding a buyer willing to take a punt.
That said, even if you put a low-kilometre second-hand engine in it, the fact remains that everything else from the transmission to the wheel bearings, brakes and suspension have also done 290,000km and can be pretty much guaranteed to be fairly worn themselves. You could then find yourself shelling out more money every year to keep the car running on the basis that you'd already spent $10,0000 on a replacement engine. Sometimes it's better to cut your losses and buy something newer.

Issues with lane-keeping assistance in a 2023 Nissan X-Trail
This model X-Trail is fitted with active lane-keeping assistance which is sort of a helping hand when the driver isn’t keeping the car in the centre of its lane. It could be that this system is what’s causing the car to feel like it wants to pull you into the next lane.
You need to have this checked under warranty as soon as possible, since it’s an obvious safety issue. This isn’t just a Nissan thing, either. Many brands have had complaints about these systems, and in some cases, cars fitted with collision-avoidance systems have been known to slam on the brakes when the car’s camera 'sees' something like a wheelie-bin on the footpath and mistakes it for a truck entering the road. Speaking of which, your lane-keeping assistance is controlled by a camera at the front of the car. Have a quick check to make sure there’s not a huge dead bug confusing the camera.

Transmission issues with my 2010 Nissan X-Trail
This model X-Trail used a conventional automatic transmission with a torque converter. There are lots of things that can cause this condition, including a failure of the torque converter or any number of moving parts within the transmission itself.
But the first check is to see if there's sufficient transmission fluid inside the gearbox. Use the transmission dipstick to check the fluid level according to the owner's manual's instructions. A transmission with low fluid can certainly exhibit the symptoms you've noted. A quick fluid top up might put the wheels back in motion.
Bear in mind, however, that the transmission is a sealed unit and should only require top ups if there's a leak somewhere. That leak needs to be identified and fixed or the problem will recur.
