YOu make it sound like all of these engines will eventually develop this problem and it's misleading for anyone reading this forum. This is not only Nissan problem also, many other make have this problem too.
I invite you to join a chat group many hr16de owners of southamerica we have on whatsapp and see if there are only a few engines, chat is in spanish but you can use some translator.
currently only users that does not have the knock are from chile.
also we have another user from mexico which engine started knokcing at 30k km, but was not knocking since brand new.
also soon i will be sharing on my website a video showing brand new cars sitting on the dealership waiting for being sold knocking, ALL of them.
so maybe as i said before they are sending almost all the faulty ones to south america and only a few to north america, my lawer thinks south american dealers are buying the faulty ones to a lower price from factory, i think the same.
also in many countries of south america dealers are saying the knock is NORMAL, lol, you can check this on the chat we have on whatsapp, so please if you are interested send me your number via pm so i can tell admin to add you.
also on south american car problem websites you can see people reporting the knock since early 2012 and dealers saying is normal, so nissan did nothing to solve this, 3 years have passed, all this information will be available on my website but if any user of this forum is anxious i can send this info via pm.
here the march is 20.000 dollars new, a brand new car with a replaced engine looses around 50% of its value, so is not a big deal to loose 10k dollars because of nissan wants to sell faulty cars since brand new, so going into a trial is way cheaper.
