Is the NISSAN XTRAIL T32 A MISTAKE? OR IS IT? UP CLOSE & CANDID WITH THE 2015 Nissan Xtrail T32

[@joshuaambani6145]

Wokabi excellent review. I have one question though, in your video, 5 cars not to buy in 2022, the T-32 was second on that list and you said that beyond the overheating issues, it has a problem with the transmission solenoids. You said that the afermarket transimmison oil cooler does not fix this issue and the solenoids are rather difficult to find and that some of these imported vehicles barely made it to Voi from Mombasa. Is this still the case and what is your take on this issue afer reviewing the car?

[@joshuaambani6145]

Also, does the T 31 suffer the same solenoid issue?

[@CARNVERSATIONS]

Thank you Mr. Ambani. The xtronic CVT issue on the X-Trail is something that is almost imminent. If you are lucky and a light user of the vehicle, it will last, if you are a heavy user well some preventive maintenance will come in handy. It is not the best of gearboxes, but the vehicle is cheap as well.. for light use, it's an okay car, for heavy usage..the gearbox and the 4x4 drivetrain are likely to act up

[@peterngeti9755]

@CARNVERSATIONS Hi... i really dig your reviews. Unatupatia very valuable info which is not easy to get out there. Showroom folks will always flood u with YESes and rarely point out the flaws like that imminent cvt failure thing. Ok i've seen some rare, one in a hundred iterations of the T-31 (i have always loved the boxiness over this newer curvy figure) with MANUAL transmissions. Some even have the even more rare 6-speed manual. What is your take on that? I'm a fairly biased guy towards manual transmissions. I love the engagement & fun they give u. Do u suppose they are better than the CVT or auto?

[@denismaina4126]

In reliability, durability and dependability, CVT and automatics cannot match a manual transmission.

[@philipsila7424]

Great work guys, your doing a splendid job

[@allank8449]

When talking about crossover SUVs never ever forget about the Toyota RAV4 which was the first ever cross over SUV in the early 90s and then emulated by CRV in the late 90s. So the emergence of the others in the year 2000 going forward was as a result of the success of the two. Never ever talk about crossovers without talking about the first which is the RAV4.

[@reseso7149]

I was a Nissan fan and owner from tiida to t30 to sylphy. I can tell you comfort and handling were unmatched compared neck to neck with rivals. They were also fast. Don't be surprised by the figures you are getting from Nissan. I left after being a very good friend to mechanics

[@kahugumuiruri9057]

The best review for this car will be after two years of local use not now. Between 2015 and 2022 they have had two major redesign on this model. The opportunity cost again is debatable, vumilia and raise the amounts needed for right quality ama cheza league yako if you cant afford a better subcompact SUV
