Hmm, seems like someone had the issue before and a bodge was carried to rectify the issue (or at least attempt to rectify it). There is an issue with the timing chains and as far as I can see it was a recall from Nissan. It does suggest that it occurs on hard acceleration (e.g. from a slip-road) and if the chain is slack it can drift away from the timing point by a small fraction (much like a loose timing belt) which can then throw a code for cam/crank timing and result in what you are experiencing. I would personally replace the engine oil and look to see what has come out - e.g. metal particles and then replace it with the specified oil which may have not been supplied with previously. https://www.autodoc.co.uk/car-parts/engine-oil-12094/nissan/pulsar/pulsar-hatchback-c13/107484-1-2-dig-t If you use a quality oil of the correct specifications (as listed in the link above) and see if that makes any difference to how it runs. If no real difference is noted then I would advise to get the timing chain replaced which will almost certainly make a difference if it is worn

I use a smart screen with Android Auto. Then connect my phone via BlueTooth and use Waze map. Less expensive and live updates of accidents, traffic jams etc.

I had the same problem radio cutting off there is a fee upgrade from nissan now work perfectly it's a common problem

Hello, I am joining this forum with hopes to be able to supply you guys with some hard to come by parts for your beloved Nissans, as the title states we are the second oldest Nissan dealer in the uk and we are looking to move some of our older parts that have been stored away for years. I will be doing a follow up post with our parts list which should have thousands of items for you guys to sift through at your leisure, I just wanted to test the waters to see how helpful this would be for you guys, any responses or comments appreciated. Kind regards, Oscar

Hi all! Im thinking of getting a Pathfinder in the next month or two. Wanted something bigger for going fishing/camping and always loved the look of the Pathfinder. Especially the older shape (07/08 models). Has anyone got a rot free one with upgraded timing chain they are thinking of parting with? Thanks in advance 🤘🏻🙂 Harry

I would say it is the anti-roll bar drop links that are failing - replaced some a little while ago and they put up a fight so be prepared to spend quite a bit of time grinding them off. Also, check the coil springs are not snapped and that the dampers are not leaking

Its such a scam and see it all the time - easy money for the garages. It is possible to fit replacement rubbers if all they are is perished. As long as they are not perforated and leaking grease or if there is any play in the joints then it is perfectly serviceable. Advise on the MOT sheet but not necessary to replace otherwise. Recently fitted a replacement lower arm on wife's Juke and then replaced it a year later as the first (cheaper one) knocked the joint out in no time - more expensive one, quite a bit heavier duty for the N/S location and almost twice the weight. An easy job to carry out yourself and definitely not £1200 worth of repairs. Kept the old rubbers to use if necessary in the future. :-)

Thanks all - found out extra security not needed. Closed topic

Nissan are looking into my new car that was not giving the advertised range of 759 miles on delivery as they said it should (only giving 660 a 100 mile discrepancy. Car delivered with full fuel tank and only delivery mileage of 10 miles). second tank fill still only 660 range. Awaiting their investigation!

i've just purchaced a used 2018 Qashqai. It has a 1.2-litre engine. This is the smallest engine I have ever had in my previous cars. But must admit it drove well on my test drive, and is in excellent nick, body & interior, so decided to get it. But just have this nagging doubt in my head about the engine, will it last as well as other larger engines? Although I see it has a timing chain (not belt). I guess that's a plus. Will look forward to reading through the posts on here. Cheers Bob

Hello I am looking for a Nissan SD25 Diesil engine which is out of a Nissan 20 Forklift. I am told the same engine was used in Nissan Cabstar and Nissan Bluebird vehicles in the 1980s. Our currant engine has a hole in the block so I am looking for a good block or a complete engine. Many thanks Colin

Sounds like water ingress into the electronics or sensors (not sure how deep the water was). If it is allowed to dry out in the sun then possibly it may work then.

Thanks bloke, nice to be welcomed and pleased to be standing 😉 I haven't even looked through your forum but I'm guessing you're a street car forum,?.. I'm 4x4, although I did own a Datsun "shovel nose" back in the day 🙂 know a little of the early KA series... but I'm here looking for information on differentials.. C200 in the Nissan Navaras in Aust..

Hello, I recently imported a rare Nissan Stagea 350S with the 6 x speed manual gearbox only 167 were made by AUTECH , i took it for its first mot today and it failed on both front lower control arm inner bushes would anybody know who can supply me with items or better still a pair of wishbones which makes the job easier for the mechanic. Cheers .. jimcrickuk@aol.com

Smashed my Kia and insurance gave me a Juke. 2 weeks in and I like it. It is a manual (the Kia was auto) but not a problem. It has a few annoying bongs and dings. It does seem to struggle a bit . The Dash says 4 but when you change up it struggles, Likewise in all gears . You need a few mph higher before you change. Otherwise it is fun to drive. Not sure why it had drive modes. I have tried all 3 but there doesn't seem to be any difference. I like the higher driving position. Seat belts are difficult to grab and fix. Seats are comfortable. Got it for another week before my car get's fixed. I will certainly look at the Juke when I replace the Kia but need an HeV.

Hi everyone, I'm Ian, currently living in Norfolk. My wife died recently, leaving me with an NX100 coupe. She bought it new in Brunei in 1992 and imported it the same year, so I guess you could call it one lady owner from new. As I already have two other cars, I would like to see it go to a good home, so if anyone is interested out there, please let me know. Stay safe Ian

Thanks - I got a new primer pump and it didn't help at all. I could try a new filter, but I did change that one recently.

Hi all, my first post. My juke 1.6 has a faulty fuel pressure regulator. Have been on the hunt for a replacement pump but prices are absolutely crazy for genuine and I'm struggling to find a none genuine that matches the part number. My part number is 1663000q0b. Are any of these pumps cross operable between models. I'm guessing looking at them they will physically fit but I'm presuming there is a difference in pressure etc? Thanks Tim

I have a 2020 Marano with this very same issue. I keep taking it to the dealership telling them about it. They say there is debris in the tracks. We either keep it covered or in the garage. I do not park under trees. I don’t know what kind of debris they are talking about, I have noticed everything under the driver seat is rusted when I pointed that out to the dealership they told me it must’ve been up north for an extended time or near the coast neither of which is the case we have not been out of town to those areas. I put in a complaint with Nissan directly and I got some hateful woman who called me and said I’m denied because my car is out of warranty however I’ve been going with this problem since we bought it. I now realize that they never intend to help us. It’s terrible what it is doing to the inside of my car, I’d like to know what anyone might have done to get Nissan to take notice of this design flaw has anyone found a fix?

Hey just introducing myself im Michael from Southampton i have traded my 2011 Qashqai ntec for a 2020 Qashqai tekna+. I am loving it but i am looking for a fuse cover for inside the glove box that isnt as expensive as they are on ebay if anyone can help?

hi thanks managed to reset and calibrate

Sounds like the Tire sensor has gone bad

Hi Everyone, just bought a 2013 Nissan Serena Hybrid and I was wondering does anyone know where I can get a free user manual download

A pic🙂

Neve mind... wife didn't have the headlight switch turned up all the way. Problem solved.

Hello I also have 2007 Highway Star and with it came an owners manual in English. The company is JPNZ instructions are torequest a repair manual for this vehicle visit www.jpnz.co.nz and select Workshop/Repair Manual

Hi again, i have found the culprit! before replacing the fuel filter i gave the hoses another check over, turns out the boost pressure hose has a big split in it around 2 inch in length! I have a new one on order. For now, i taped around the hose to “bodge” it and straight away the difference in pulling power was night and day!.. a big puff of black smoke and off she went! A fresh MOT and the family wagon is back on the road. 👏

Definitely do a fuel filter change and see how it goes then.....keep us updated

Hi Trevor, thanks for the info. I'm going to be replacing the transfer box sensors shortly so I'll take a look whilst I'm under there. Im not 100% sure what I'm doing but trying hard to get the car operational asap. I've tried everything I can think of so far and still no dice. I appreciate the thinking and will let you know how I get on

Hello. Very pleased goes extremely well far better than the previous Peugeot 5008 I got rid of. I changed my previous Qashqai 1.6 petrol with CVT box 13 reg about 3 years ago mainly due to the badly corroded rear subframe, managed a pass but received an advisory instead. Car came from South Cornwall ( St Agnes )exposed to the salty atmosphere from new. This is probably the best secondhand car I’ve bought, must be at least 50 over the last 60 years. The only thing I miss is not having an automatic handbrake which came on when you turned off the engine unlike the Peugeot.

Hello there im searching for a 1990 sunny coupe gti rear spoiler, hope somewhan can help me find one or hase one for sale.

Hi everyone.new to the forum Just thought I'd start with a question as everyone does lol. I have a 95 sunny sequel which is currently sitting on steel wheels and I need ideas help as to what wheels will fit it

Looking for a nissan 100 nx to purchase if anyone on here knows of one. Thanks

I will definitely check all of the points of ground connection, and make sure that all BCM connections are secure and dry. Thank you for that insight. I was researching where the BCM is located, and it appears to be behind the instrument panel. Is that correct?

Nissan fixed it under warranty.

Thankyou.shes got wheels now! I am trying to keep it as period as possible

Hi, new to forum. I've just bought a 72 plate nsport and am wondering if anyone can suggest a reliable wireless phone charger that works with an android phone and fits nice in front of the changer where the USB slot is Thanks in advance

Hi any advice tips for this model just purchased August 2022 Scotland. I am always willing to give a go simple small Car owner maintenance weekly jobs but due disability strictly no DIY or heavy lifting Spinal problems. Positively driving this Car first time ever today it fitted like a glove never had any Car like that and after nearly a year of not having a car great! I could sing notes hah!

We have a Juke in the family and the clutch is also quite lively and takes a few more revs to keep things smooth when pulling away

Morning gents and ladies! New member and also a new Nissian owner N16 Almera 2006 1.5 petrol! Joined here to help with modding this car ! I've already posted a question so I shan't post it in here as well! Look forward to speaking with you all!

Hi there did you get to the bottom of this problem as i have the same thing

Hi I am chris I got nissan qashqai 2014 1.5dci have had it for 3 years red have done some mods on it great car love it best car I have in a long while do most of my own work on it also

Yes Trevor we will there is a place and they have different lengths I'll find the web site over weekend

Common fault on Qashqai is condenser failure. Perhaps your A/C system doesn’t have gas in and isn’t working accurately.

I have been told that the new models have a 1.3 as opposed to ours being 1.2 - apparently it makes quite a difference.

Hello, Just found this page. I have a 1985 1800 SGL. I have owned the vehicle from new. I have every service record MOT etc. The car was in practical classic about 5 years ago. Never been rebuilt or sprayed all original. Runs like a dream. Cheers Paul.

The AA key section will cost about £180 the will come to your hose

Think it shows the fitting points in the manual

Thanks Trevor, I feel the same, it's still under Warranty and I've since found out they can be re-calibrated for free so I'm going to pop into my local Nissan. I'll keep you posted with result 🙂
