Nissan Owners Club

I would say the first place to start is the battery and terminals (ensure they are clean and tight) from there i would check the battery condition to ensure it is fully charged. If its not charged then check the alternator drivebelt and see if the red Ignition lamp comes on goes off when the engine is turning

I'm wondering if it could be a little bit of both? It would be natural to have a linear acceleration with e-power but also if a software upgrade was available then there may be an update on drivability which may smooth out the drive

The main thing to worry about is oil quality, levels, and period between changes. This all affects the internal engine parts and particularly timing chains. Technically, they should last if treated considerately (e.g. allowing engine to warm up before driving off when cold, avoiding stop/start journeys as best as possible, not driving at high revs initially, etc). Cars have become so reliable and long lasting since I first started driving (early 1980's) and then new cars would only last about 10 years or at least had an engine replacement in that time. Nowadays, cars last beyond 20 years quite happily as long as they are serviced and maintained properly. Mileages in excess of 100k is quite reasonable now but back then it was classes as high miles when it was at 50k or 60k.

Hi....and welcome to the Club

I have programmed fobs in the past and they have to be programmed at the same time rather than doing it later as it is opened for programming within the timeframe

It looks like a damper for the throttle, EGR or similar

Certainly never heard of this before but if that appears to resolve the issue then its an easy (and cheap) fix 🙂

Hi Rob.....welcome to the club Good to have you onboard!

Welcome to the Club Bob

Welcome to the Club

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

Hi Luke Did you end up buying a Micra?

Hi Peter....welcome to the Club What a fine car! haven't seen one on the road for a very long time. If your mechanic is 'old school' then he should find his way around the engine bay with ease, they were so much easier to work on back then. Sounds like a carb strip and rebuild should do it and resolve the running issue. As for the struts it may be worth trawling ebay to see what is out there even if they are secondhand to try to keep the car original as much as possible. Let us know how you get on with it over time.

It depends if the noise is coming from the interior fan unit or under the bonnet?

Hi Charlie welcome! :)

Good news! :)

Bit of a long shot but wheel bearing?

I'm a bit stumped too to be honest! Did you ask the garage if they had any suggestions as to why the economy had dropped so significantly?

Hi and welcome to the club! Hope you enjoy the Qashqai! When do you collect it? :)

Photo and price?

Not sure exactly how much but I would definitely say more than £200! :D
