Nissan X-Trail

Nissan X-Trail dCi 130 and Eriba

Kevin Bailey reviewed on 31 August 2018 a Nissan X-Trail dCi 130 (131 PS/96 Kw, Year: 2014 - 2019) with a Eriba Touring Triton 430 of 1000 kg.

The Eriba is usually loaded to around 1150 kg, the car has bikes or kayaks loaded on the roof. The xtrail is extremely stable especially with a little extra pressure in the rear tyres.Acceleration is average with the caravan931 in tow, it is best on the motorway when speeds of 60mph can be maintained with ease. This car/caravan combination seems very safe and well within the xtrail capabilities however I would imagine with a heavy caravan it would be a little lethargic.

Nissan X-Trail 2.2 dCi and Coachman

Richard Griffiths reviewed on 31 May 2017 a Nissan X-Trail 2.2 dCi (136 PS/100 Kw, Year: 2003 - 2007) with a Coachman VIP 535/4 of 1580 kg.

The X Trail is a 2006 Adventura with full spec I just towed the coachman loaded approx 1575 kg with no effort at all over a 350 mile return journey only having to use the 4wd setting on steep hill junction pull offs, the car averaged out 26 mpg towing on A roads would expect a little more on motorways, I have been towing for 30 years plus and the X trail is one of the best I have had giving confidence in all situations.

Nissan X-Trail dCi 130 4WD and Coachman

Marc Newbold reviewed on 30 October 2016 a Nissan X-Trail dCi 130 4WD (131 PS/96 Kw, Year: 2014 - 2019) with a Coachman Pastiche 575 of 1510 kg.

In my opinion the new X trail is 5 stars. I have just had the X trail and I was little concerned about its ability being a 1.6 engine but I was pleasantly surprised with its performance. Hill starts on wet grass ok and steep hill starts ok, general driving good. I previously towed with my Dads 4.4 Range rover so I expected a noticeable difference but I am more than happy with X trail performance towing and not towing.

Nissan X-Trail 2.0 dCi and Lunar

Stephen reviewed on 14 February 2016 a Nissan X-Trail 2.0 dCi (173 PS/127 Kw, Year: 2007 - 2014) with a Lunar Delta TL of 1700 kg.

Nissan X-Trail is a brilliant tow car and solo vehicle. There is no option on the match for a Delta RS, but the TL is near enough the same specification. With the van being a twin axle its stability is really good, so dont agree with the write up expressing a risk of snaking especially too with the ATC on the caravan.

The X-Trail tows the Sterling very well. The twin axle on the van helps the whole thing feel very stable even in fresh wind conditions. The X-Trail cruises at 60MPH in 6th gear and returns 24MPG in a 50.50 mix of motorway and A road driving.

Nissan X-Trail 2.2 dCi and Lunar

Simon Turton reviewed on 11 July 2012 a Nissan X-Trail 2.2 dCi (136 PS/100 Kw, Year: 2003 - 2007) with a Lunar Chateau 500 of 1320 kg.

We changed our Volvo XC70 due to a worn gearbox, which was going to cost a minimum of £2,500 to repair. So, we chopped in the Volvo for an X-Trail (July 2007, 2.2 Aventura, T30). We have only towed our Lunar Chateau 500 once, but so far we're very impressed. You do need to work through the gears quite quickly when towing, but even on steep hills there is good traction even in 2WD mode. I would recommend the Auto setting for towing on certain roads to ensure that there is no slipping on loose gravel, for example. Not sure what we're getting in terms of MPG when towing but it will be better than the Volvo, without a doubt. My only slight concern was the temperature gauge moved from 'normal' (about 1/3 of the way from the lowest reading) to about 2/3 of the way to the top. However, I was pushing the vehicle a bit too hard up a long, slow hill. Once we reached the top the gauge went back to normal. The other thing I always do is let the turbo cool down before turning the engine off. It sounds a bit fussy to do this but it does prevent turbo unit wearing prematurely. Otherwise, there's ample room inside for four of us and there are plenty of useful gadgets. A great family vehicle that is surprisingly GTI-like when not towing.

Had the 56 plate X Trail for a few months now and absolutley delighted with the performance and towing capabilities average around 27 to 28 mpg and bags of torque to get and keep you moving.Did a run up to scotland and it managed the hills without a flicker.Would buy another in a heartbeat.

I replaced my Rav 4 with a 2009 xtrail 170 and I have to say I reckon it's better at pulling than the Rav, you hardly notice the van behind you. Torque is great and very flexible.

I have been towing my adria 542uk for the last 3 years with out any problem untill this year where the xtrail started to hunt for fuel going up a hill, this was always about 3000 revs,problem solved by installing new fuel filter (36000 miles before nissan recomended),car now towing like brand new vehicle. I would recommend the xtrail for comfort, power and ease of towing also gives a good return on the mpg.

We've had this X-trail four years now and have never had any problems towing. Very stable, pretty economical even with two children, holiday gear and bikes on the roof, without that lot I can get almost 50 mpg. It's done 70k now and has recently got a bit expensive, two cylinders in the fuel pump and a offside rear brake caliper which cost £1300 to buy & fit! Apart from this it's difficult to fault and I'd certainly consider another one, although I'm quite taken by the new shape Honda CRV!

This car pulls our Lunar without any problems. It even pulled it up a very steep field full of snow. None of the cars there could even get started on the slope,even those that were supposed to be 4 wheel drive, so we were so pleased with the performance of the car. Not cheap but worth every penny if you want a capable 4x4. Also no problems mechanically over the 3 years we have had it,from new.We are just about to trade it in for a new 1 so they must be good!

Have had this caravan for 1 year and have taken to the Highlands in Scotland twice. The car has performed well but I feel that it would be on the limit with this size of outfit. MPG works out at approx. 26 but tried towing with 4 wheel drive on auto and MPG dropped to 19. Previous caravan was a Swift Challenger 540 which would in my opinion be a better match.

However, this is the first year i have experienced a problem.got as far as j27 M5 going along very nicely, when suddenly the engine died on me. managed to coast into slip road ,I could select all the gears, but could only crawl in 1st&2nd.called out breakdown assistance,mechanic plugged in his diagnostic tester which came up "no fault found". after several scratching of heads, the only thing to do was to return home. So x.Trail was put onto low loader, and with caravan in tow ,returned home.X.Trail was booked into Nissan workshop. thier own diagnostic test showed "low air pressure to fuel pump". so, with fault repaired and £400 lighter we resumed our holliday!. I still say the X.Trail is a good work horse, but what prompted me to write this review is that i have heard of this happening before , and same problem was diagnosed anyone else out there had this problem.?.

Just finished a 2 week holiday in Devon. Three hundred mile trip each way. The XTrail handled the job with ease. Gritted my teeth and stuck to 56mph the whole way. Resulted in 28.8 mpg, which I am more than happy with. It was also the most stress free drive I have ever experienced as I never needed to change lanes to overtake anything! Cruise control combined with auto box made the trip a breeze. Highly recommended.

Only minor things are clatter noise at start up and high 1st gear for pulling away on steep slope otherwise this is a great vehicle at sensible money s/hand. Not a true 4x4 but also fantastic traction in wintery weather.Comfortable and all the toys you need.

had first gen XTrail (114bhp) and went to a Patrol for that bit extra power but it was worse!.. gone back to the great XTrail but this time the MK2 (136BHP) with all the toys. I have a heavy caravan twin axle and the exy tows very well in all conditions... this is a great car but this review is about towing! on steep hills it does seem to run out of breath but keeps moving steadily, reversing such a wait does affect the clutch but a heavy duty one may resolve this. would like a Pathfinder though... just cannot justify the prices when the exy copes fine.

I have used this combination for a couple of longer trips with the Lunar and couldn't be more pleased. 29mpg with the van on the back, 40mpg solo, roomy and comfy. Very slight warm clutch smell when manouevering on site but nothing to worry about. Rock steady on the road, check the tyre pressures as it will make a difference! Followed another X-Trail through the Kirkstone pass in Cumbria, we were solo, they were towing a similar sized van to ours but also had a trials motorcycle hung on the back of the car! Very pleased, would definitely recommend, ours has 79000 miles on and uses no oil.

This is my second X trail and for every day use its economic,trouble free and comfortable. I changed my caravan last year from a Bailry Ranger 510 to the Compass omega 544. On the road the out fit feels safe and I dont have any real problems towing. Hill starts are another thing and Im not sure if I get stuck on steep hill I would get away. Pushing the 544 backwards up a any slight incline is a no no ( Clutch burn ). I have had the van checked twice and there is nothing wrong with the brakes. Other wise a great car.

Have had X Trail since May 2006, used firstly with Bailey Bordeaux and subsequently with Hymer Nova 435LS. Fuel return with the Bailey was sightly better than with the Hymer- about 2-3 m.p.g. less--possibly due to Hymer having a wider body. The X-trail dealt with both caravans without any cause for concern. Have towed mainly in England but also in France, Belgium and Holland. The only problem I have had with the car was a faulty intercooler, replaced under warranty.
Tyre life with Bridgestones has been excellent, the car has now done 44000 miles and the tyres were replaced at 35000.
Solo fuel consumption is generally about 36-38 although have broken 40 on a few light footed occasions. Towing I get 24-26.
Overall good car, good tug and enjoyable to drive if the mood takes you.

I have been extremely disappointed with the X-Trail, especially driving at low speeds and uphill, where the car seems breathless.

Colin James reviewed on 03 February 2007 a Nissan X-Trail 2.5 16v aut. (165 PS/121 Kw, Year: 2003 - 2007) with a Eriba Touring Triton 430 GT of 1080 kg.

In a word, excellent!. Effortless towing to the legal speed limit on autoroutes. About 23mpg when towing. Auto version has four gear ratios PLUS two in overdrive which Nissan does not publicise. Default position is overdrive, deselect by pushbutton when towing up motorway slopes or overtaking. Towing up steep mountains (Pyrenees) demands 1st gear. Slow, but masses of power with absolute control and an acceptable compromise since second gear is very flexible in towns.
Auto gearbox has 1350kg towing limit, manual 2000kg.
Auto select 4WD useful on steep gravelly roads. Full 4WD rarely used - muddy fields only. Good vision through 'van, and extension mirrors not needed.
Use 'dropper' plate on towbar to level 'van.

Nissan X-Trail 2.2 dCi 2WD and Lunar

Mrs G Blakeley reviewed on 10 November 2006 a Nissan X-Trail 2.2 dCi 2WD (136 PS/100 Kw, Year: 2005 - 2007) with a Lunar Lexon 575 EB of 1313 kg.

I would rate the nissan x-trail 2.2 dci { 2wd } as being a great car, towing the lexon lunar cs. It takes the road at ease and has no problem with down hill or up hill driving. I have my two kids aged 12 , 14. Two german shephard dogs and myself and wife.
Plus fuel costs for my car is : motorway 44 mpg. Around town 39 mpg.
Towing weight fully laden is 1500 + for my car.
