Rogue Hybrid knocking under load

Hey, I'm having trouble with my 2018 Nissan Rogue Hybrid. It's got about 150k km on it and recently it's started knocking under load. I've noticed reduced engine power, jerking when accelerating, and even some smoke. I scanned it and there's an error code stored. Anyone else experienced anything similar?

Sounds familiar! I have a Rogue too (not sure about the year), and I had similar symptoms. Did you check your fuel octane? Low octane can cause detonation, which can lead to knocking. What does the error memory say?

Interesting. I usually fill up with regular unleaded. The error code points towards combustion issues. You think it's detonation? What did your error code say?

My error code indicated a misfire, which can happen due to detonation. It turned out to be deposits in the combustion chamber. I'd recommend getting it checked by a workshop if it continues. Engine tuning is tricky.

Thanks for the tip! I took it to a shop, and they confirmed it was combustion chamber deposits. They cleaned it out, and it cost me 425€. Runs like new now!
