Thank you for the feedback ValBoo. I already took it back and they had me listen to another one. Made a similar sound but much more faint. It certainly sounds like it could be the injector since the sound does not change at all whether it is at start up or after 30 minutes of driving, and I can also hear the pistons working faintly, therefore doubt they are causing the sound.

I am just curious as to whether other X-Trail owners have the same experience as myself or whether this issue is specific to my vehicle and the dealer is giving me a runaround. No other car I ever owned had such loud fuel injectors if that is in fact what I am hearing. Suddenly I miss the days where cars had no fuel injectors...

Thanks again for the feedback and hopefully others can confirm whether this is in fact a shared experience.
