Re: Grinding/ Rubbing noise
Noel,
My only reply to your post would be that the ST and Ti share exactly the same features and engine power (including the ABS features) except the following differences:
1. 16" Alloy wheels
2. 6 CD in dash changer.
3. sunroof (or the DVD pack)
4. Leather interior as an option.
All other changes are cosmetic.
The above is no reason to take one of them off-road but not the other.

Re: Grinding/ Rubbing noise
Gents,
Perhaps I'm mistaken. I assumed the ST didn't come with ABS.

Re: Grinding/ Rubbing noise
yeh im pretty sure mine has ABS too... but im not so sure now. Anyone know for sure if the series 1 ST has ABS?
EDIT: I have both the series 1 and series 2 xtrail brochures. The series 1 came with ABS.
The only thing added/changed in series 2 is the cruise control as standard, leather steering wheel and changes to the tail lights, bumpers and an upgrade of the dash layout. Anything else i forgot to mention let me know. But yeh series 1 deff has ABS (phew)

Re: Grinding/ Rubbing noise
I was about to go back and bash the salesman, who assured me that my series 1 ST had ABS when he sold me the car just kidding.
ABS is standard across all xtrails.

Re: Grinding/ Rubbing noise
Yeh, I checked the old brochure I got when I bought my TI, and the ST is almost identical apart from a few cosmetic features.
Sorry if I offended anyone with the word trashing. I guess I didn’t buy my X-Trail to go off-road very often, but that’s just me. I’ve been off-road with it once, but nothing serious.
Perhaps I’m a bit fearful of doing any serious damage, as I actually own this one, and I want it to last as long as it can. I guess the work vehicle I don’t mind throwing around, as it’s not mine.
Kind Regards

Re: Grinding/ Rubbing noise
NPC73. No one was talking about how serious the x-trail will go offroad, just about a tyre rubbing noise and you just hijacked the tread....
Look, the x-trail is not aimed at extreme offroad work(WE ALL KNOW THAT ALREADY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TIRED OF EVERYONE REMINDING THIS CRAP...) if you want to do that offroading you better buy a patrol. But since we want POWER,AERODYNAMICS, fuel economy, QUALITY,HANDLING,SECURITY,ETC balance we chose the x-trail . And besides that it's a vehicle that can TOW better than most big vehicles(There is a big patrol in my house, zd30di good torque, but too heavy).
So...back on to the drinding/rubbing noise. I've experimented it, when turning on lock on hard surfaces and when there is a big difference of tyre pressure on the front/rear. I have found that driving on auto offroad is better in places like sand/mud,but not on places with a lof of holes(that need wheel travel, etc).
