Hi all, I am the third owner of my 1994 Nissan Altima. I'm looking to get some help and advice on repairs that it needs. Can somebody point me in the right direction to which forum I would use I don't really see a Nissan Altima forum. Alternatively I could just say what's wrong with it here. I need to swap out the knock sensor and I'm not really sure how to get to it. If anybody knows the procedure I would be grateful. The knock sensor is behind the engine below the intake manifold.

Hi there I have two Nissan Micra’s. One registered in 2017 has alloy wheels with tires 185/55 R16. The other car, registered in 2006 has steel wheels with tires 175/65 R15 T. My question is, can I fit all four steel wheels onto the later car or can I put two steel wheels on the same axle of the later car? Any advice would be much appreciated. Greg

Hi all, I’m trying to replace the alternator on my 2017 Nissan Micra K14 Visia 1.0L (71PS – HR10DE engine), but I’ve hit a wall trying to get the belt off. I’ve located the tensioner pulley (the black one just above the alternator), but the centre is smooth — no bolt head or nut — and I can’t for the life of me find where to apply a tool to release the belt tension. I am no mechanic either .... wheels and fluids is usually my limit! I’ve checked above, behind, and around the tensioner pulley but can’t see a square hole or hex boss to rotate the tensioner arm. The engine bay is tight, and I’m not sure if I’m missing something obvious or if access is just that hidden. I’ve tried to follow online guides and videos, but most are for different engines or older models (K12/K13). Photos attached if that helps (can add more if needed). Any help — diagrams, tips, tooling advice — would be massively appreciated before I lose the will to live or call a mechanic 😅 Thanks in advance!

Hi there, I have a 2022 Nissan Qashqai J12 Tekna (36 CAM, etc.), and my current display screen looks like this: [img]https://i.ibb.co/ZR3WXYr2/Screenshot-2025-06-19-at-11-48-41-Used-2022-BLUE-Nissan-Qashqai-1-3-Di-G-T-MH-158-Tekna-5dr-Xtronic.png[/img] I’m looking to upgrade it to this screen: [img]https://i.ibb.co/xZpfPGP/Screenshot-2025-06-19-at-11-48-30-Used-2022-GREY-Nissan-Qashqai-1-3-Di-G-T-MH-158-Tekna-5dr-Xtronic.png[/img] Can you confirm the following: Is this a direct plug-and-play swap? Will all existing cameras and sensors still function correctly? Is a PIN code or any additional programming required? Thanks in advance for your help! Best regards,

thanks admin. I'll take some pics, and post later. Any views on the 1.2 engines?

Does anyone use this forum? was going to add............ I had to have the Thermostat & plastic casing replaced, costing £445. That's pretty much why I asked the question 😉

Hi, New to the forum, as I just purchased the above Qashqai (Blue) Please don't tell me I've purchased a lame duck? I like it so far, but others don't, so I've read elsewhere. it's taking me a while to understand all the steering wheel gumph etc. I'd like to know what others' opinions are here please?

You should be able to find a set of halogen headlamps which are completely different to Xenon type Try Partsfinder or eBay to see if there is a pair for sale

Hello, I’ve just joined and thank you. I’m from Aberdeenshire in the UK. I am getting a 2019 41k miles diesel Micra soon, the dealer says they will change the cambelt and give it a 6 year service. Does anybody know what should be getting done for that service? thank you Neil

I have experienced something very similar. On researching a "fix" I found that holding down the central on/off/volume button for 10 seconds will reset the system.

Has anyone else lost the back up alert sound? Camera works fine but lost alert sound.

Morning all! I'm looking at replacing my disc and pads on my nissan pulsar. Could I ask if anyone has a pdf workshop manual or one they would recommend for changing brake disc and pads on a MK3 (2016) Nissan Pulsar?

Hello , it has been awhile since last posting a/c stoped chilling and garage found small leak and sorted. But fitter said that the main radiator fan was not coming on and could cause problems with high temp /pressure in a/c system.cannot find anything about checking fan motor. Not a lot of space to access it . Does the fan have a fuse?

Sorry, have double posted 😄

HI everyone, I wanted to let people know about my first "breakdown" and to warn others of recall notices done while at the garage. I will have owned the car 3 weeks on Friday and having done only just over 200 miles (most of which was to Newcastle airport and back home). We came back home to airport after week away in Austria to find car wouldn't let me in? Thought maybe key fob was flat, so took skeleton key and opened drivers door manually. Once inside vehicle I still couldn't open remaining doors or boot. Tried to start car but no sign of life. Battery looked dead to me. Vehicle comes with RAC cover for first year, so called number and (without boring people with details of automated systems) the RAC Agreed to send technician to help with starting vehicle. The RAC technician checked systems over, put boost on battery and we were able to open remaining doors and start the engine. With the engine running carried out several checks before deciding that the battery needed to be replaced as not holding any charge. I contacted the dealer who said they would re-imburse cost of replacement battery if I needed one fitting. As it turned out the RAC technician didn't have a battery, or was able to obtain one on a Saturday afternoon. Luckily he was able just to put some charge in vehicle and advise us to drive straight home without stopping (as money would have been wasted and not re-imbursed) if he had fitted a new battery. The car made it home later on Saturday afternoon and back to garage first thing on Monday morning. Due to number of service bookings and other jobs, I spent the morning at garage waiting for inspection and repairs. I had expected the battery just to be replaced but when technician checked condition, battery was found okay, just flat and needing a full charge. I was told that the car had been the subject of two recalls since purchase and that both (one more than other) would drain vehicle battery when car stood for a few days, like not being used over the weekend. The two recalls were PG4CH -- Alarm and PG5C0 Combimeter - 12v Battery. Both had faults in them that resulted in both systems not shutting down when car stopped, hence drain on battery while stood. The combimeter was seen as the one that drained the most battery power. Both were software issues that needed to be downloaded and updated in vehicle. Took over two hours more to carryout recall work and update the software but battery then retested and given a clean bill of health. Something that has never happed to me in over 40 years of leaving cars at airports but always a first time. Time at the garage was more than expected but cannot expect to jump que over people who had own vehicles booked into garage. Hopefully this will be the first and last breakdown we have with the vehicle. We love the car, how it drives and how comfortable to drive. Regards, Trevor

Hello there, As a newb to the world of Nissan motoring, I wonder if someone can help? We have just taken delivery of a new 2025 X-Trail Accenta Premium e-power and have been driving it for a few days, and have been puzzling over how the front-parking sensor is supposed to work. Coming home at the end of a journey and driving up to our garage door the front door parking sensor fails to activate. Stopping the car, putting it into neutral and then drive again seems to activate the front sensor, and it starts pinging. Are we doing something wrong, something wrongly configured, or is this normal behaviour for the car? Thanks in advance for any replies :) Sok.
