Which SUV should I buy?

You have clearly done your homework, from which you should be able to decide which is best for you. Without knowing what your needs and wants are all we can advice is that the three cars you have honed in on are good choices.

Best used compact SUV?

You will get great value and a classy car in the Suzuki Grand Vitara. The CR-V also goes well and is slightly better value than a RAV4.

SUV under $40k?

The Tucson gets The Tick from me and rates above the X-Trail, but my first choice is the all-new Kia Sportage.

Nissan X-Trail: Chugging

If there are any warning lights on it could be a problem with the electronics and it’s gone into ‘limp home’ mode. If there are no warning lights on it’s likely to be a fuel issue, and not getting enough fuel to keep it running when under load, which it is when in Drive or Reverse. I would change the fuel filter, check the fuel pressure, and clean the throttle body.
