Re: M9R Turbo Failure
Bad luck about your turbo. Mines 74000 km old in my 2011 TL Auto but no issues as yet.
There are turbo repair experts in Australia that might work out a little cheaper than going back to Nissan. Try http://www.turboaustralia.com.au
I'm wondering whether one of the variable geometry vanes might have either failed or is not functioning properly. If you're not getting a MIL light for insufficient turbo boost pressure then the turbo must be supplying some amount of charge air. But maybe it's not working to full spec.
Replacement turbochargers, if it comes to that, actually aren't as expensive as you might think. The one you're looking for is a Garrett GTA15V and I've seen them via the internet for around $1000. But you may well find your turbo is repairable. The address above has a queries form in the repair section that might be of use.
Good luck.

Re:
Very disappointing to hear. Low km for age is on your side. You are right, even out of warranty, this should be covered. 87,000km is nothing for a diesel.

Re:
I did the caves-to-caves track this weekend. Heading back Jenolan Caves this afternoon, i get a blinking cruise 'set' light about 30kms out of Goulburn... Couldn't get power... tried the usual resets (power off etc.) and still nothing. But we were able to get the car going until about 2500rpm in each gear.
Figured out it was the turbo not spooling as we still had drive (got up to 80km/h using 6th and some hills) and made it to Goulburn. 2kms before the dealership, MIL came up.
No idea whats going on, but I left it at the dealers, and will go back tomorrow morning to deal with it in Goulburn (luckily I'm working there tomorrow)...
Wondering if its a new turbo... or have i blown a hose (again).
