Can any member tell me how to tell if an xtrail is fitted with uphill assist. mine has downhill assist as there is a switch for it but I cant see anything for uphill assist. The owners manual refers to "uphill assist where fitted" but makes no references to switching it on or off etc. Any help...

I recently posted asking about what sort of a job it was to replace the heater matrix and received instructions for which I am grateful, However before I tackle what looks like a hell of a job has anyone had experience of using K-seal a radweld type product. It reads very good but I wonder...

Hi all, I would like to know if anyone has any experience of replacing or repairing the heater matrix on a 1996 Mistral 2.7td. Mine was leaking into the footwell on the passenger side. For the time being I have by-passed the heater by joining the hoses on the engine side of the bulkhead which...
