Nissan X-Trail e-POWER 2023 Owners Manual
8.9. Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) (where fitted)
If any malfunction occurs in the Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) system while the e-POWER system is running, a warning message appears in the vehicle information display.
If the [4WD System Fault] warning appears, there may be a malfunction in the 4WD system. Reduce vehicle speed and have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If the warning message continues to be displayed after the above operation, have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop as soon as possible.
For 4WD equipped vehicles, do not attempt to raise two wheels off the ground and shift the transmission to any drive or reverse position with the e-POWER system running. Doing so may result in drivetrain damage or unexpected vehicle movement which could result in serious vehicle damage or personal injury.
Do not attempt to test an 4WD equipped vehicle on a 2–wheel dynamometer (such as the dynamometers used by some states for emissions testing) or similar equipment even if the other two wheels are raised off the ground. Make sure that you inform the test facility personnel that your vehicle is equipped with 4WD before it is placed on a dynamometer. Using the wrong test equipment may result in drive train damage or unexpected vehicle movement which could result in serious vehicle damage or personal injury.
Do not operate the e-POWER system on a free roller when any of the wheels raised.
The power train may be damaged if you continue driving with the [4WD System Fault] warning on.
When the vehicle is in the P (Park) position, the operation noise may be heard from the lower part of the vehicle. This is not a malfunction.
