Hi....welcome to the Club Please let us know how you get on with it all Good to have you onboard

Hi .... welcome to the Club Nice collection of cars - good to have you onboard

Only done 10 miles but loving it already. We did have a Kadjar as a company car for 2 years so I had an idea of what it would be like.

Hi I have a 2017 Nissan Qashqai J11 St auto petrol model. The orange malfunction indicator light has been on for a while now. I have had the vehicle several times to an auto electrician who has reset it and the code was P0303 with the message that the 3rd cylinder is fisfiring. I have also had it to the local Nissan dealer who again reset it with the same error code showing up. It has had a new coil ignition pack put in as well as a standard service with new spark plugs. It has recently started to shudder a bit when driving and the motor has cut out and stopped when I am stationery. It restarts again when I turn it over. I have taken it to another mechanic and they have swapped the 3rd and 4th injectors to see it that would make a difference. The malfunction light has stayed off, however they got me to take the car on a drive at a speed of 100klms to see what happened. In doing this, the light came back on for a few seconds and went off again but the motor cut out again when I stopped at an intersection. They have rescanned it again and it is now showing that the 4th cylinder is fisfiring which indicates that the injector/s need replacing. Just wondering if anyone else has had this situation before and what the outcome was. Thank you. Debbie. Queensland

Not on late models as it an EU requirement as I understand it. Mine is set up with a shortcut to turn audio warning off by pressing control switch and Okay.

Hi Nissan Lovers !!! I'm LA I'm wondering if anyone out there loves the 2001 5-speed as much as I do. The one I have, sadly is in need of some major engine work that I cannot afford to do. I've been lovingly taking care of it for all these years, but the engine work will cost more than I can afford. It's got a 8 month old clutch, 8 month old Michelin Defender tires, the seats are pristine as is the interior. Is there anyone in Colorado that "might" be interested ? I hate to let it go, but need to at this time. LA

welcome to the club !!

Hello, I wonder if anyone has had the same issue as me. The steering emits a squeak when it there is moisture in the air, so during the warm months since I got the car in June, no noise at all. You can imagine what it has been like recently since it has been raining.... The forecourt I bought the car from has there own garage and they apparently have greased the steering joint, both side since they replaced the gearbox (under warranty) I am going back to them with this continuing issue, but I wanted to see if anyone on here has had the same issue and what it was? Thanks.

Hi Simon...welcome to the Club You certainly have a good collection of Nissans Good to have you onboard

In the UK there is a windscreen company called Autoglass and they have all the equipment and necessary knowledge to set up the ADAS If there is somewhere similar in Sweden that you could take the car to for a check and if necessary get them to set it up correctly

Thanks for the tip, I will check them out. Cheers.

First thing I would have suggested is fitting a new good quality battery. Also, not entirely sure if maybe the stored battery voltage needs resetting with a scan tool

Hi ..... welcome to the Club It's a perfect car for local use more so than motorway but it should be mostly reliable and also economical Enjoy the forums

I just tried taking down my spare tire to check the air pressure. Needless to say, I don't think it had ever been out. Due to the cold climate (Salted winter roads, Northern Canada), the bolt was very rusty and try as I might, no lube was enough and I snapped the bolt in the "hook" assembly that holds the spare tire carrier up under the car. Does anyone have a usable bolt and hook assembly that they'd be willing to sell?

there are some posts on google search relating to the PO409 code I would first start by running some cleaning solution through the fuel and give the engine a very long high revs run to burn off any excess carbon that has collected in the EGR or Intake Manifold

possibly air mass meter is causing the jerking - try removing, cleaning and replacing Another possible cause could be the throttle pedal sensor needs replacing? Have you turned off the air conditioning as this will run a fan on start up

thanks for updating us and please let us know how it proceeds

The Qashqais have only got the fuel flap protecting access to the fuel inlet. Is it possible to fit a locking fuel cap inside the body flap? If so anyone know of where to get one. please.

Hallo den habe ich erfolgreich eingebaut: L7808 Spannungsregler 8V DC gruss Michael

I would check the coolant pressure cap as my first point of call - replace if necessary as its quite cheap and take 30 seconds to do (only release the cap when the engine has cooled down)

So, a little update on ours! We've managed to get a warranty replacement agreed via Ancaster and Nissan UK. We had to prove service history and it's going to take 6-8 weeks because there's a part out of stock (they've already had it 6 weeks). It took some arguing but definitely worth pursuing, especially if you've maintained your vehicle.

Thanks. No instruction hadn't changed anything. Just did reset when it stopped working.

You may be able to get the spheres re-gassed.....you could do on the Citroen and Hydrolastic spheres many years ago - look up Sphere repairs or regas

Hi Stuart....welcome to the club I would say just have the vehicle checked over at a garage and if it is in need of a service to then have this carried out before venturing abroad. Also check your tyres for wear or damage and make sure all your lights are in working order. You may need to get vehicle passes such as Vignettes but otherwise, convert your headlamps so that the beam is deflected to the other side (can get a kit from Halfords for that). Good luck and enjoy your trip
