1.2 engine rattles at just over 2000rpm
It is there constant, dealer did ask if engine was making any rattling or tapping noises before it went in. From what I was told by dealer yesterday Nissan are still investigating why these engines are using so much oil. Did you get a lead time on delivery of new engine?

1.2 engine rattles at just over 2000rpm
Took car in to dealers yesterday, they told me new engine needed, due to oil consumption. Hopefully new engine will fix both problems.

No, they didn't say. They did say a lot of dealers are reporting this issue with this model and that Nissan were still investigating what is causing the oil loss.

My 64 reg 1.2 dig-t has used 5 litres of oil in less than 2000 miles. I went to my local Nissan dealer, they said they could not do anything unless there is an oil leak, which there isn't. They said drive it for another couple of thousand miles, it may settle down. They admit the oil usage is higher...
