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'm sure you will keep finding bodges throughout the car and maybe worthwhile assuming everything needs checking and just work your way through it. If you are lucky you may find the issue which is causing the problems and may not cost you much if anything at all to resolve Let us know how you get on with it

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

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

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

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..

Hi Trevor, Thank you for your input, anything helps at this point, much appreciated! All the best, Daniel

The vanes are located inside the turbo and can be cleaned using a cleaning solution in situ https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/292459335127?_skw=turbo+cleaner&itmmeta=01JC60BMWEXRSD20EMHAM2ZFK6&hash=item4417ef4dd7:g:wcwAAOSwvShajqeM&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA0HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKlEsMwj%2F9Rwy31LfWXY0vu7JPmLf9xI%2B%2BMMJNw2%2BBAV%2FAzGfwovr4g0y%2B3nTHJ4Prps1SHhzuT%2Ff2g2nWknOStqIPX6QYXX8mYiOwrPQZg0rCbLgkZPxW2e%2Bb%2FYuW1DwD1hTh1Pxnmpzlv3q%2Bmbox0A19ibnfkcrcj6SmcyxcJgPmsnqSNrib3vGE5upPP8XDzI8lnokXOTc44%2FUuHtUlQmJoH0yyaUgDzXcWukxhKo4OnzBu0ua0dem9Pz9hohvhw%3D|tkp%3ABlBMUKrOrsDhZA

Hello there! I've got myself a Red 2000 Nissan Micra 1.0 GX Automatic yesterday and I love it! I used to see the (pre 2004 Micras) in Felixstowe all the time when I lived there years back and now I finally have one. Does the owners club have a Classic Micra Rally (or get together type thing) in the UK or did I dream that.... (nice dream if I did!)

Hi I did managed to remove that, however after i paint them i cannot put them back due to yellow clip is loose in the rail and i cannot remove it. Please help

You can get a stainless steel one custom made for not a lot of money....check on eBay for sellers https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2499334.m570.l1313&_nkw=+nissan+juke+nismo+rear+silencer&_sacat=131090

Hi...welcome to the Club Can't go too wrong with a Micra. Simple engineering and go on for years Good to have you onboard!

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?

I would like to replace the head unit on my Maxima, in particular to get a functioning integrated satnav. I could do with a recommendation based on experience from a J12 owner. By way of introduction, I am in my seventies and retired as a Postman. First Nissan (Datsun), was a 120Y Coupe (my wife's) on which she traded a 72 Torana. After that, 180B wagon, 200B Wagon, N10 Pulsar (first model 5 speed manual dealer rep {my neighbor} car, Skyline Exec, 260C 280C (one of those was a wagon ?) 2002 Maxima 320k J12 2012 Maxima (written off for me) J12 2012 Maxima replacement. I also had a Bluebird as a company car, part of a small fleet I bought for the company I worked for. Main interest in motoring is BSA/Triumph bikes.

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

Hi, same issue I had. Battery is fully charged. All the lights were on but not starting. I found this in another forum I followed the advice and I worked. Hope it’ll help 🙂 Thanks Jackyboy117’s advise : ‘I turned the ignition switch to the second point just before you start the engine, I then got out the car and disconnected the negative lead and replaced straight away. Now the car started to try and start but would only make the noise. I then had to shut all doors and bonnets, turn the engine off, lock the car with the key, open the car with the key, half turn the ignition and leave for 5 mins. Once the 5 mins is up turn off the car and straight away start.’

Newbie here, checking in with a problem, but I'll put that in the right area. I picked up an Orange 2008 Qashqai early December 2023 as an emergency car. It's a 1.5 manual with 164,000 miles on the clock It's got a few problems, but it's getting me around 😁

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. We have a Nissan Serena Highway Star. Registered here 2009. We got hit while parked outside by unknown driver. Our right side wing mirror was damaged and a scrape down the side. Insurance company couldn't find any repair station that could replace the mirror and nor can we. They paid us a minimal sum to repair it ourselves. Any suggestions or anyone local in Essex breaking one? Sue and Rob.

Just come across a video suggesting that the neutral position switch on the gearbox may also have gone. Diagnosis is to turn on the Engine heater switch then engage a gear. Revs should return to normal idle if the switch is operating. My car does not return to idle. Stays revved up and I canove forward without there being any change Could this contribute to the error lights I'm facing?

Thank you. I am going to choose Avon.

Thank you for the welcome Trevor and thanks for the links will have a look now.

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

hi guys, Collecting a 2005 Nissan Murano Thursday. Ex nissan parts manager, so have always had a soft spot for Nissan, a few models in particular. Hopefully looking forward to getting involved, without having to ask for to much tech advice! My last Nissan was a few years ago, a Juke, and a few years before that a QX A32(i think that was the model?) thanks Tim

Hi I have a 71 plate leaf I have had my sounder switch on/off sticking in I give it a bit WD40 and had know probs since

Hi thanks for replying. The engine runs and am not really sure about misfiring or rough running. To a trained ear you would tell in seconds but i dont know much about them and couldnt tell. I will need to check the wiring etc get a ohms metre

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

You've no doubt got this sorted Felicity, but just in case you haven't, I recently bought a set of 2 for my 2010 R51 for $79.00 NZ, from Broughmach Auto in Australia. Free postage and arrived in 6 days. The company has good reviews.

Would any one like to swap their GTR for my 350z…one lady owner, never drifted

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!

Hi, I'm Matt, just recently bought myself a Mk5 Micra Tekna 0.9 I-GT. Have a few questions about performance and a few other things around the car so look forward to having your thoughts on these in another thread! Thanks Matt

A 2000 Nissan Sunny saved our life in a rear impact crash 80 miles per hour whilst staionary in a queue hit 4 timesi understand because of rear bulkheads being strong and protecting the Petrol Tank area.

Hi all new member here i am looking at getting a Nissan highway star and cant find the right sub to post it in in here.. someone point me in the right direction please.. never owned a Nissan before so looking forward to speaking to you all.

Hi Trevor, thank you very much for the reply I am going to order a new push start button with the outer ring today that I mentioned in my first post after its arrived and installed I will update and let you know how I got on with it.

Hi, what codes showed up when you had it checked? I’m sure you can’t just purchase the regulator as it is inbuilt into the fuel pump on the 1.5 k9k engine so you would have to fork out for the lot

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.

Would definitely advise using a battery conditioner (available from Halfords, etc) as this will keep the battery topped up...especially important during colder weather. Otherwise it should be okay if left in a garage for this amount of time

Great I’ll take a look

Think it shows the fitting points in the manual

I would start with the grease, clean it from the reluctor ring and go from there

Thank you for that clear and concise information. Much appreciated. I will let you know how i get on.

Hi guys I'm new to the group hoping to buy a 2018 nissan micra 1.5dci with 18k on the clock... im abit unsure if I should buy it as I only seem to find negative reviews. I was wondering if anyone had any positive experiences with the micra. How reliable are they? What are the common faults etc... Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks Luke

Will be trying a new suction control valve, will let you know if it works

Hi Daroosi, did you ever resolve your screeching central locking as my 2007 model has started doing the same, Mickmoonie 🤘
