erik - your stock bov should be alright - other bov's cause stalling on afm controlled engines since the air isn't being recirculated, and the engine thinks there's more air in there than there actually is ...

whereas the stock bov that you have is recirculating ... though if it's got a leak it'll cause stalling (though unlikely as it's all setup with metal pipes and is pretty hard to take apart with a spanner etc, let alone for it to come apart by itself!

might be a broken afm perhaps - though you'd have other problems such as stalling when you pushing the throttle etc ... if you can make it to a cruise then that'd prolly be a cheaper way to fix it than the mech (though saying that warranty is def in the books so do that)

the problem u present is unbelivably rare. normally, engine will not stall if its above 500-700rpm. correct me if i m wrong. yah, if ur definition of below 2000rpm is below tht range, probably u still know what is going on. if not, think u just wanna find pple to chat, hahha...

no offence.....

i stay somewhere near winthrop, tink i ve seem ur car before, dun tink there be much 34GTT black ard with a indonesian chinese driving it...

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
