    Yes, apparently the new engine is installed (8pm ish) and they are leaving it over night to let seals set up, etc. Tomorrow they will road test. So in the future when the cars fall out of warranty, an engine swap will probably be a weekend project for sure, not an 8 hour quick job.

    of course an engine swap is not an easy job, they must transfer all components, throttle body, intake, alternator, pulleys, all sensors, tuberies, etc
    and then re conect all that components, fill up with coolant, oil, check for leaks, etc.
    Really hope new engine is knock free!!!!.
    Please if possible post new engine number (if knock free) and dealer report.

    New engine has been successfully installed, happy and knock free.. New engine is *HR16*885216 H.

    Makes me wonder if its 70 series engines that are prone to the issue.

    I would like to say that I am very happy with Nissan's response to the issue. It was a fast as possble, and done quickly. I appriciate them standing behind the product they have made..

    If anyone is having a similar issue, I reccomend using my info on it. PM me if you need some assistance. Here is some data that might help:

    COMPLAINT: CONCERN OF ENGINE KNOCK FROM 16-2100 RPM'S NISSAN CANADA REF #3879549 (CSI)
    CAUSE: ROAD TEST TO DUPLICATE NOISE - SCOPE NOISE TO DETERMINE SOUND IS BOTTOM END NOISE - CALLED TECH LINE TO GET APPROVAL TO REPLACE ENGINE
    CORRECTION: REPLACE ENGINE ASSY & TRANSFER PARTS AS NECESSARY

    PARTS-----QTY------FP-NUMBER-------------------DESCRIPTION
    JOB 2 1 10102-3VA1A BARE ENGINE
    JOB 2 1 14035-1HK0A GASKET
    JOB 2 1 14036-1KT0A GASKET
    JOB 2 1 11001-JK70A BLOCK HEATER
    JOB 2 1 15066-3HC1A GASKET
    JOB 2 1 32 - 50 #20 CLAMP
    JOB 2 1 15208-65F0E FILTER, OIL
    JOB 2 1 11062-1KT0A GASKET
    JOB 2 1 21014-ED000 GASKET
    JOB 2 2 99998-E105934 MS1000 5W 30
    JOB 2 2 99990-ENGBLUE ANTIFREEZE

    HOURS: 9.20 1 TECH



    So with that I hope that info above could help as a baseline if some modder wants to replace their engine in the future. Or at least the block heater PN. I think the CSI number is when I called into Nissan Canada About it. But I figure if enough people call in about it and steer at the same direction, then eventually, it may become a tsb or something.

    Excellent -- thanks for posting the details.

    And it's good that Nissan has kept a satisfied customer through it all.

    Question: is the warranty on the replacement engine the same as the rest of the car, or does it start the clock over? (Or do you care?)

    Glad to hear new engine is knock free.
    here you have a number from a chile guy with 7 series engine knock free, also there are more guys with 7 serie engine knock free, will have their full numers later and share.
    also there are people from 2012 engines with the knock, so probably they are 5 or 6 series engine.
    very very strange thing.
    number from chile:
    HR16-769569H

    as far as i know they will keep the warranty of the car, so is not extensible.
    but according to my lawyer, you must ask for a full new warranty on engine since is a brand new piece.
    very good question, hope anonymus can answer this.

    The engine is warrantied under the new car warranty, so it doesnt roll over. At 100,000km on the odometer, the warranty is up... Im not too picky. I'm just happy they replaced it.
