|  Superb Engine failure(V6) My V6 is currently sitting at the dealer for a computer indicated engine failure... The problem started last week when there was 1 light burned, then today the other light burned, and I had the anoying warning message. Then BANG the "preheat" light turns on(the yellow circles) and the onboard computer says something like "engine failure, take to the service centre"(mine is in spanish). Took it to the service center and they told me they will call me thomorrow. Didnt give me any courtesy car or anything. The car is from my father (my car is a nissan x-trail  ).What may the cause of this problem? Since the car only has 11,000km and almost 1 year. It's a 2.5 V6 elegance 155HP. This is the third time that we have some kind of electrical prlbem(first it was the trip computer that didnt show the radio station, etc) second the ABS/ESP light on.,.fixed all under warranty. But, it has been a pretty damn GOOD CAR! LOVE IT!...I wish I had one of those.... |

| Probably the top intercooler pipe on the n/s that was quite common. As are the brake light swtiches, not all bad then.
