Nissan X-TRAIL 2015 Problems

The CX-5 is the best vehicle in your line-up and gets The Tick from me.

More than 80 per cent of cars sold in Australia are now automatics and that share is still rising, fast. When companies are looking to cut cost and complications from their line-ups, it's easy to drop a manual that few people want. Between X-Trail and CR-V I give The Tick to the Honda.

The Australian Design Rule specifies that the speedo must not indicate a speed less than the true speed of the vehicle, or a speed greater than the vehicle’s true speed by an amount more than 10 percent plus 4 km/h. That means that if your car is travelling at a true speed of 100 km/h the speedo can legally read as high as 114 km/h. On that basis your car would appear to be within the allowed tolerance and is legal.
