hey guys new to the forum but have been reading for quite a while and now have decided to join because i am the one who needs to vent about my d40 problems.
bought a brand new d40 st about 2 months ago and recently it started to produce an extremely potent electrical burning kinda smell when i cold started every morning. spoke to a few people and they suggested leaving it for a couple days to see if it subsided. but every morning, still the same smell(almost like wires melting or a welding smell). then 2 days ago the engine light came on and went into limp mode. took it straight into nissan and they seem to think its got something to do with the EGT. he tried telling me the burning smell was coming from the superheating of the diesel. i tried explaining to him that the smell only happened immediately after a cold start so it is impossible that the EGT could max out in 3 seconds. he said the waiting time is at least 2 weeks and i would not recieve a loan car.. so now im left with no transport to work and losing money. not a happy customer at all.
