  3. Apologies if this is posted in the wrong forum. Have the classic heater motor not working, have followed all the tips on the forums and the finger points to the heater motor. This may or may not need replacing as it could be the connectors. So using the going in from above approach and removed a piece of ducting, all good so far. The challenge is getting the thing to come out, everything I’ve read says a few wiggles and some patience it will come out, think I’m not wiggling properly 😊. Can anyone advise on the movements needed to remove it? I’ve attached some photos, it’s almost out but can’t figure out the last move to remove it. Thanks in advance for any help
  4. Hi, just wondering if this may be familiar to anyone. We own a 2015 Nissan pulsar, and recently after driving for approx 1 hr on motorway car will jerk forward and back. We also get a warning light for the auto stop start, and loss of power. Is this familiar to anyone? Our local garage is trying to convince us this is normal wear and tear but I’m not convinced!

  6. So I have a 17 plate and I noticed a couple of wet patches so I looked underneath and this bar underneath the car at the bottom is wet. The other side is very damp and slimy and I noticed some droplets. Is this something I should be worried about and get checked. I have only had the car 2 months and it’s already been back to the garage I got it from 4 times for various things that have gone wrong such as exhaust falling to bits due to extreme corrosion.
  7. hi. does anyone know if its possible to purchase the bushes for the gearbox end of a manual transmission gear change cable
  8. Has this happened to anyone else? changed flasher unit/ind stalk still blows fuse (sometimes) 1996 micra auto. Last time it happened it blew hazard fuse also. No hair left to pull out!
  9. Hi, I recently imported a Nissan Elgrand from Hong Kong. Unfortunately, I lost the original non-UK registration document, so DVLA has advised me to get a dating letter from the manufacturer. I contacted Nissan UK, who informed me to speak to Nissan Japan, who came back with a typical scripted reply, basically saying they cannot provide documented information for exported cars. Right now, I'm stuck so I hoping someone out there can help or point me in the right direction. Cheers Richard
  10. Amazing advice. This has literally just happened on my Xtrail, True enough, I loosened the 3 trox bolts so I could fit a little hook in the recess to enable me to pull the child lock switch back. Bobs you uncle and Fanny’s your aunt it worked Thank you.
  11. I own a 2005 K12 1.2 auto on just 25k miles and have an immobiliser issue. Battery has been replaced (old one was shot after being laid up for 8 months) but I was getting a significant current draw. After checking each fuse, I’ve discovered its the immobiliser as after pulling fuse 7 the amp draw dropped from 0.25mA to 0.02mA. Not sure where to go with this now as I’m guessing its not going to be cost effective to sort out. Is there a way around for the immobiliser? At the moment I’ve put a physical battery isolator switch on the positive terminal, which means I have to lock the car, unscrew the switch and then unlock the car with the key when i want to use it to put the isolator back in 🙂 Any ideas?
  12. Firstly, thanks for your response and guidance. Very much appreciated. I’ve since replaced the battery (old one was shot after being laid up for 8 months), checked all fluids and all seems good (coolant was indeed only halfway up the tank!). Good enough to pass its MOT yesterday and she ticks over beautifully, so I’m happy. The only thing remaining is the current draw, but I’ve also discovered whats causing that and yes - its the immobiliser. After pulling Fuse 7 the amp draw dropped from 0.25mA to 0.02mA. Not sure where to go with this now as I’m guessing its not going to be cost effective to sort out. Is there a way around for the immobiliser? At the moment I’ve put a physical battery isolator switch on the positive terminal, which means I have to lock the car, unscrew the switch and then unlock the car with the key when i want to use it to put the isolator back in 🙂 Any ideas?
  13. sorry Trevor it took so long to reply Its no different to normal and its been on three months I've not had a chance to put it back on the diagnostic tool again to see if anything comes up but there is no faults on the dash ! only the engine light
  14. EPG display light comes on intermittently I took into garage for diagnostic test but nothing coming up on the garage machine to say what's wrong. It is xtrail 59 reg it mark 3 model any ideas what is wrong
  15. I am keen to add some lift to my 2019 Navara. It has the flared arch kits, so I am hoping someone will know whether I can go up to 225/85/R16 mud tyres, or whether I need to stop at the 75's? I am happy to go for the lift kit as well, if it makes a difference. It currently has the black gloss alloys, so would rather keep these if poss, unless someone knows of a set of muddies going already on alloys What's your experiences of fitting larger wheels/tyres please? What other car wheels fit the Navara pls? Thanks for your help

    Infiniti Q50

    Just a quick update. The garage i took the car to absolutely nailed it. For some reason they had to 're-learn' the gear shift positions. It works absolutely mint now. Definitely saved a trip to the dealers and less than a £100 to get it sorted.
  18. Anyone able to tell me how to fully reset my sat nav unit on my t31? Not sure what buttons I need to hold down
  19. According to the Nissan dealership they are the same model, it’s down as an alternative fuel car being a mild hybrid… makes no sense to me
  20. Nissan Xtrail 2015 Sonar suddenly stopped working even though settings are all ok, but when in put car in reverse its showing sonar as off can anyone help please
  21. hi I a;ready bought 2 adapters - for radio and for TV but where to install them? no idea where tv and radio amplifier are ..8-) atm has changed some things.. on the bonnet is the "proper" emblem - not lying but standing- and I should finish - maybe today adding a SECOND sound system with modern radio and another set of speakers. Because inside is a very complicated Bosse system and no1 in Bristol wanted to work with my Nissan I decided to put inside the second system..So I will have all the modern tools like Bloototh, wi-fi and of course Uk radio with normal frequency. I will post some pictures when I finish it completely and here are the pictures
  22. Halfords always have a good range and decent prices as well
  23. I would definitely try a temporary 12 volt feed but be ready to remove it if nothing happens just in case it has a high resistance and causes an electrical fire
  24. did changing the oil filter cure the problem?
  25. Evening, I've just bought a Nissan Note 1.5 diesel. Has anyone have a workshop manual they don't want? Tim
  26. Hi thanks for your reply I'm confident the other switches are ok as the interior light now comes on which ever door I open so I assume there working.
  27. If no screws are obvious to see when you are looking at the panel then it would more than likely be held by clips and gently pulling the panel should release it
  28. Certainly the DPF regenerating and diluting the oil with diesel wash-down is a major cause of lower MPG This is due to lower compression being produced as the rings are not sealing due to thinner oil Only Low Ash oil recommended for that engine should be used but at least the diesel wash-down will have cleaned the engine internally 🙂
