Hi all,
I have a worrying engine knocking sound when I accelerate in my 2014 QQ.
It's only done 38k miles so it shouldn't be worn out should it?

Can anyone tell me what it is?
Thanks

What do you think it is?
Can we assume your engine has oil and is fine apart from the noise?

Hi Yes it does have oil. It was only just serviced in April.
It still pulls well and there are no other problems.

First I thought it was engine, but it cant be. I'm going for the DMF as Monkey suggests. Does the clutch judder? I'm guessing this is the 1.5 dci?

Funny you should ask about the clutch shudder. I've noticed for a while that it does tend to shudder when pulling away in first and sometimes second. I've spoken to Nissan about the engine noise, and although I don't have an extended warranty, I have had it serviced at a main dealer so they've told me to get it in so they can diagnose the problem, and they say that they MIGHT be able to help with costs. This along with the recent news that my aircon compressor is leaking has just added another £600 onto the problem. I hope they take pity on me!
Thanks for the comments guys.

An update on my engine knocking noise.
I was shocked to hear from Nissan this morning, saying that the big end bearings have failed and I need a new engine!
My QQ is only 2104 with 38k on the clock. How can this happen!

Nissan dealers will only ever replace engines, not fix them. You could probably shop around at specialised engine repair shops and find one that could replace the big end bearings.
What's the history of the car - has it been fully serviced at Nissan dealers all the time?
