On behalf of the XMM-Newton/Chandra M 31 nova monitoring collaboration (see http://www.mpe.mpg.de/~m31novae/xray/ao10/index.php) we report the discovery of a new bright X-ray transient in M 31 in a 20 ks XMM-Newton EPIC observation which started on 2012-01-15.62 UT. The source position is R.A.(J2000) = 00:42:43.59, Dec.(J2000) = +41:25:19.3 (1 sigma error of 2.4 arcsec), using the catalogue of Kaaret (2002, ApJ, 578, 114) as an astrometric reference.
