2004 Nissan X-Trail: petrol or diesel?

Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.

Petrol 56% pass first time (all 2004 cars: 57%) Stands out: sub-frame 2.7×, brake pads 2×, anti-roll bar bushes and joints 5.2× 2,032 MOTsSee the petrol guide › Diesel 50% pass first time (all 2004 cars: 57%) Stands out: rust around suspension or steering mountings 3.1×, sub-frame 3.4×, engine oil leaks 1.9× 4,245 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›

Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
