Mine had the same leak and was fixed under warranty. An oil leak developed around 20,000 kms from the timing case & then at 85,000 coolant started to leak. I also read that it was an engine out job but that is not the case. The front of the engine / timing case is pulled down & re sealed / fitted to correct issue. I left the leak until 85,000 kms because I didn’t want Nissan touching the vehicle but found a good dealer who didn't try & handball me or the issue. In saying that though they had two goes at it, but its all good now, & when I got it back it was all put back together properly. I'm also having a new intercooler fitted under warranty by the same dealer, it's been leaking since 35,000kms. Apparently its cracked, another Nissan dealer looked at it at about 50,000 kms & I was told it was "common". Go figure..
