    The bright day-time screen can be dimmed manually. The third switch down on the right side of the screen switches it to dimmed "night-time" driving mode. Also, when then headlights come on, the screen dims for night-time automatically. You can switch between them if you want.

The funny thing is, I bought the car in Switzerland and they only sell it in 4wd. Recently I moved to the Netherlands took the car with me and imported it. After some research it seemed quit special because in the Netherlands they only sell the nissan in front wheel drive. So all countries the cars got different options. .

    @kelechinobi3085 2 года назад +5

    Talking about the all wheel drive system I think what you need is something like Subaru’s symmetrical that can allegedly distribute power to different sides. Or a full blooded system like u get on the land cruiser with lockable differentials. As far as I know the xtrail doesn’t actually have lockable differentials. The xtrail awd “lock” position simply means the transfer clutch is fully engaged at low speeds. Differentials between left and right side wheels remain open so if one side loses traction all power is sent to that side ... it’s a law of physics.

    • @gerardsargentini269
      @gerardsargentini269  2 года назад +2

      Hi Kele, couldn't agree more to what you are saying. The xtrail isn't in the league of a subaru or land cruiser. It is a nice cvt, but that's all it is. For rough terrain you need something else. It brought me everywhere I needed to go though. Thank you for the explanation😁

  • @haks_123
    @haks_123 10 месяцев назад +3

    good review, i personally think the 1.6 engine is too small for this car. It revs high for too long in 1st/2nd gear when moving from a standstill, because of that it gets quite bad economy in city driving, especially because the car is quite heavy. However, for highways the diesel engine makes up for it and you can expect 50+mpg or 4.7l/100km. One more thing is the back two seats have terrible leg room, even kids struggle to sit comfortably without moving the middle row quite abit forward. apart from that this car is amazing.

    • @gerardsargentini269
      @gerardsargentini269  10 месяцев назад +3

      Hi Haks 123,
      Spot on. The 6,7 seats in the back are pretty useless. I didn't buy it for that, i bought it because it was a tekna and the cheapest online at that time. Its not an audi or subaru but i must say the 4x4 took me everywhere without any problems. No rough terrain tho. All cars have ups and downs but i really liked the car too.

      Hi Zlatko, Thank you for your comment.
      Overall it was a pleasant car to drive. As the video shows, i had a 1.6dci 4x4 130hp tekna. So i can only tell you about this particular car, i dont know how reliable the petrol engines are, if i am not mistaken all the engines are renault engines. The petrol engines aren't that reliable, the dieselengines were good, no problems with them.The car didn't show any rust , the car was 4/5 years old. When i bought the car had 45k km on the odo and i sold the car after 2 years with 82k kms on the odo. In that period only 1 malfunction accured due a powercut on the battery, battery was pretty new but had a power cut, after that sometimes the pdc and cruise controll didnt work. Not all the time tho, after a reset at a garage it never came back. Mine was a manual gearbox, thats the one to have, the cvt gearboxes are shit and will brake down, reparing them costs a pretty penny. For the rest the tekna edition is the one to have because of all the standard options it got, led lights, electric leather seats and 19" rims and much more. It is a pretty big car but the overview is excellent, little dead angles and it drives like a you are driving a smaller car.
      I really enjoyed this car, still miss it sometimes
      So my advise if you are in the market to buy one: buy a manual and make sure it's a tekna edition. Most bang for your buck.

Due my ownership i didn't had any problems with mine other than normal maintenence. I heared the cvt gearboxes can show early problems, so hopelfully yours is a manual or doenst brake down. I hope you will enjoy the car as much i did, i sold it after 2 years because i moved from Switzerland back to the Netherlands.

    I own the basic 1.6 dig-t visia trim model from 2016. No awd, no screen(this is a plus for me), I am also in doubt about the car. While fuel economy on the gas engine is good (6.7 average), the suspension is a bit to soft as i got 2 sets of 17" rims for it. Also I really dislike the standard speakers. I can confirm the tyre noise is bothering me as well. What i love most though, is the length of the car - folding the backseat, me and my wife can easily sleep comfortably. Also the width (2,06 m with windows open) . I only have 2.1 m in my garage entrance. It has i believe the smallest width in the compact SUV line while also offering some of the best space in the segment. But the thing i hate the most about the car is the maintenance. At least in Germany, whenever i need to do the regular maintanence, i have to fork around 500-600 euros at my nissan dealer , while on my second car (mazda 3 2020) it usually costs around 350euro.

About the maintenence, I never go to a dealership as I always get the feeling I am getting screwed🤣. I take my car to a smaller garage where costumerservice is still a thing. Love the space inside as wel, recently I put a bike in the back of it without any problems. Kind regards
