xtrail's accelerator

**bwn** · December 3rd, 2003 06:34 PM

hello, xtrail owners, just want to know if ud notice na parang nabibigla or jerky ang pag accelerate from a complete standstill...found out na wala pala direct link ang accel pedal to engine throttle ang xtrail, minsan kasi nabibigla...ganun kaya talaga?

Drive by wire technology ang X-Trail. Similar to the Isuzu Trooper 2000 model onwards.

ganun nga siguro pag drive by wire, pag heavy footed ka parang nag jajackrabbit pag accelerate from complete stop...was thinkin of inquirin sa nissan kaso baka lang mapasama pa, am sure wala pa sila experience dun. anyway, sanayan lang siguro.

ahhh remember the egg underneath the gas pedal

The advantage of drive by wire is that it allows precise movements in acceleration since the ECU reads the input from the pedal directly. Mechanical considerations such as "play" between the components are eliminated.

I have two people with xtrails who both experienced problems identified to a defective wire harness. After much emergency meeting daw by Nissan people, it was concluded not as a design defect but supplier defect. I failed to ask them what happened that was connected to the wire harness. Anyone know what this wire harness is for? Would this be related to the accelerator issue in this thread?

We have the 200X (I was not able to convince my wife to get the limited edition Pajero) and yes I experience the same situation on our xtrail. You have to step on the brakes sometimes to slow it down. I was assuming it was because of the 2.0 engine kasi our other cars are just 1.6. How is your consumption? I can only get 5Km/lt on our extrail.

Thanks,
Paul
