Apart from this.....did I not hear that the 2.2 engine was a bit suspect, made by Renault or something like that, with turbo problems, or was it in the Avensis and suffered regular turbo destruction events....?

I love how people like throwing in arbitary adjectives for some sort of effect.

I think the 'Di' has the Nissan Y22 engine, whereas the dCi has the Renault engine - with usual Renault engine reliability! Its a great shame that Renault engines are being put into Nissans - it will have a devastating impact on Nissan's reputation.

from the Honest John link.
I'm sure it'll have an impact, hardly a devastating one dear- you can put The Daily Mail down now.
