Does INFINTI QX30 Have Transmission And Engine Problems As They Age
Well, … it’s an upscale Nissan with a Mercedes derived 2.0 litre turbo, duo clutch transmission. Great car for a while, … ‘till it is not! Expensive to start with, … atrociously expensive to repair when it breaks. And it does break just about after warranty runs out, … so I hear.
A friend who leases Infinits for quite some times now - I think he is on his third now, tells me that they all seem to deteriorate quite quickly at about 75k on a clock. Hence, just perhaps the best thing is to lease one, drive it, … than return it? Dunno, … I only look at them when he gets a new on, … just curiosity!

But Are Turbo Charged Engine A Good Or Bad Engines
bad they wear it out faster and they need premium fuel..
Turbo engines are a marvel of engineering! Bags and bags of power (work) from a smaller, lighter, higher stressed engines. But, … there is always but, … cost of that extra power from smaller, higher stressed engine comes at diminishing longevity.
In engineering we use the brake mean effective pressure (BMEP) as a quantity relating to the operation of a internal combustion engine. This quantity is valuable measure of an engine's capacity to do work.

Fwiw,
F.S.
all modern nissans are pretty bad. the first thing to go out on those are the cat converters at around 150k miles.. even though its not a cvt they still have problems.
plus that car has a mercedes turbo engine which shortens its life even faster.
a much better value luxury car for longevity would be a lexus/ acura
They are good cars for the first 100 130 k miles and then engine and transmission problems are everywhere they are basically Nissans with far from good transmissions and only decent complex engines.
If by age you mean 6 7 8 years, then it could be very reliable. If by age you mean 25 years, you are out of luck.
