Abstract: Let $G$ be a $p$-group ($p$ odd prime) and let $X=\Cay(G,S)$ be a $4$-valent connected Cayley graph. It is shown that if $G$ has nilpotent class $2$, then the automorphism group $\Aut(X)$ of $X$ is isomorphic to the semidirect product $G_R\rtimes \Aut(G,S)$, where $G_R$ is the right regular representation of $G$ and $\Aut(G,S)$ is the subgroup of the automorphism group $\Aut(G)$ of $G$ which fixes $S$ setwise. However the result is not true if $G$ has nilpotent class $3$ and this paper provides a counterexample.
