Call for Tuners with X trails

Oh also in May i had to change the pressure control solenoid...it doesn't come by itself it comes with other solenoids on a rack so i had to buy all

That bad solenoid was causing a rough gear change on first gear, you heard a loud "bang"...sounded like a mount but it wasn't.

I need a center console too...one of the clips broke on mine and it doesn't hold anymore...

wrt to the ET...did u you it from massy or local used?...if it's not under warranty prepare to shell out some money...if you could find the part number - like go into a motorist and ask them to pull it up for you

Then check out this site...

They in Barbados, i usually buy parts from them when Massy doesn't have (which is all the time)

I actually prefer to buy parts from them cuz they much more friendly and helpful to deal with.

Snogz question: how did your QR25 was destroyed??? what rely happen????

i ask this question cause some tuners also own QR25 s..

Apparently my QR25 was loosing oil rapidly. On checking several mechanics for leaks or any resolve for that matter they all had the same thing to say, that my piston rings were probably worn and I needed to rebuild my engine. I agreed and my mechanic was renovating his garage at the time so i could carry it by him. I decided that in the mean time i would top up the engine with oil every week so that i can use it to get to work everyday. Two thursdays ago i left work and i heard a loud rattling noise (sounded like the noise u hear when a bearing shells) then that was it my engine died and didnt restart. On trying to turn the engine we noticed that the engine was locked up. Its currently at the mechanic and on opening the intake manifold u can see peices of metal in it. He advised me that it cannot be repaired (although he still hasnt completely opened the engine) and that i get a QR25 head and block or a QR20 complete engine. Thats the story!

saw this thread and decided to revive/continue....

have a 2006 Xtrail from Massy....just turn 2 , doing 33K (yeah yeah...)
So ah decide to bling it out...i replaced my stock with 18's and when down to 50 series tyres

My baby start to ride like a ole bedford...
i heard the ride wud get a lil ruff but WTF....!!

I re-aligned (helped a bit)
I put nitrogen in de tyres (helped some)
but I still get a shimmy when i on the highway (doing 80Kmh and over) and braking from high speed has turned into a nightmare....steering all over de place! it's a mess

Help meh!!!!...Love de rims but i now lack the confidence i once had in de ride.....suggestions welcome

Yo Joe,

Did they speed balance the rims when they put it up? thats what prolly causing the shim.

As for the harsh ride - well i had got accustomed to the GT Z-tune suspension. Thaz what you would expect when you take the meat off the rims.

Saw the ride today, still looking crisp though.

I walk in late on this thread.....I drive an '07 eXy from Massy. No probs so far. Doing only about 20,000km. Serviced recently at the firm. Replaced air filter with original, as well as a/c air filter. Don't know what oil they used though..

I drive the fokker hard though! Everyting still stock. Looking to see how to get some extra juice out of it.... Confused

The original tyres have a couple months left....so I considering to change the rims when changing tyres....but I can't decide whether to stick with 16"...or go 18". Would have to investigate what offset and rim size would be as 'close to stock' with the 18's though...???? My quandry also has to do with with tyres....I want to be able to use some kind of all terrain tyre on it...good on the highway, and also good in ah lil mud / wet grass situation....

Aside from that....my bro drives a leased X as well...and he had an overheating problem last year! Not sure what caused it though.....but head gasket an ting was gone....So a word to the wise.....keep your eye on the temp gauge.
