Slight noise - CVT / Xtronic 2015
Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2020 10:00 pm
Hi,
New here and unsure how this all works so apologies in advance.
I have bought my first Qashqai on a 2015 plate.. Xtronic / CVT version. First time I have owned a Qashqai let alone a Nissan but enjoying it so far however....
When accelerating at low speeds, there is a faint rubbing metal noise (only way I can describe it) and only occurs when accelerating. Garage (dealership) have had a look today and changed the pads as they thought it may have been that however, the guy who I passed my keys to this morning said that it could be a recycling valve of somewhat which has been rectified on newer models. How true who knows !
Can hear it more with windows closed and higher speeds, it seems to fade out.
Has anyone had this issue ? Car has done around 16500 miles. Five years old. Only occurs when accelerating and accelerator us at a certain point. Take my foot off and it disappears.
Nissan Qashqai 1.2 DIG-T Tekna Xtronic CVT
Any ideas or if this is normal would be great. If there is a 'common issue' can it be fixed ? Would like to get back to the dealer if there is a common issue but appreciate that the recycling valve may not be entirely true.
Seems to only do it around 0 to 35 mph before fading away
Thanks all
