Battery condition is my first thought, if discharged then this can be the fault Ensure the brake pedal is fully depressed if not then the pedal switch may be faulty. Also applies to automatic transmission selector switch (try running through the gear selection to see if this affects it)

Hi....and welcome to the Club What a fabulous Christmas present to receive Good to have you onboard!

You are correct with the latter, always worked on every car I have had a DPF issue with

Not sure the diagnosis is anything more than if it is the DPF then it is best to give the car a good blast to clear it through and at zero cost

Google does have images of the service schedules but not sure how they print out

I think it is a standard Nissan adapter which they sell in Halfords I bought one for my X-Trail from them years ago and worked fine (with the exception that it did not utilise the steering wheel controls)

Hi Geoff....welcome to the Club Here is a link to Castrol's website where it lists the oils specs and quantity https://www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/car-engine-oil-and-fluids/motor-oil-and-fluids-finder.html/retail

Thanks for letting us know the outcome, its certainly a strange one

possibly fusebox in the engine bay?

Definitely the battery condition and health should be checked first and replaced if necessary

Sounds like debris build up on the rotary coupling (the Airbag slip ring) but would require removal of the steering wheel and airbag to examine or clean

It is worth checking the earth cables and there are several that run from the battery to the engine and the underside of the chassis to the gearbox so worth checking and replacing all of them if necessary. Halfords sell a range of battery cables and quite cheap

I would imagine unless the coolant all dumped at the one time into the engine then it would have gradually been introduced into the combustion which at minimum have created a fine mist which would be burnt in combustion. Has it mixed with the engine oil? Does the engine misfire? Water injection in diesel engines is used efficiently to produce power and lower emissions so the pistons would show as cleaned (almost steam-cleaned) and no further damage Too much water then this can erode the aluminium pistons and even the valves I would ask whether they could use a non-intrusive method of inspection such as a boroscope inspection through the injector or glow plug holes or even through the inlet or exhaust ports (manifolds removed) Alternatively, they could run compression checks on the cylinders to see is there is any loss on one or more cylinders which would indicate damage has occurred

Possibly try a vehicle wrapping company as they would have done work like this to de-chrome cars

Some of these functions should be programmable by the dealer The auto-locking is something that may be regional (country) and also a requirement from the insurance companies Not sure about the one touch door locking though

May have popped a fuse if the mirror wires are exposed or touching each other or earth

Hi Carl.....welcome to the Forum Feel free to dive in and assist with any posts Good to have you onboard!

It certainly sounds like the oil is blocking somewhere along the line. Have you changed the oil filter? If not then this is more than likely the cause for the symptoms you are describing

Is it petrol or diesel?

Should be under the front bumper area and may be accessible if you lie down under the front?

It doesn't sound right and more than likely the seat base has possibly been removed and not refitted correctly. Try pulling it up, examining what the item sticking through it is and see if there is another way to secure it

Could be the battery condition/strength or the battery leads loose or broken Also, have you tried another key fob (if you have another one)?

It may well be suitable but imagine it would have to be programmed into the vehicle (e.g. steering angle reset)

Your dealer should be able to programme this feature so it is disabled Some countries do not allow the beeps so it can be done

If there is no possibility of them being removed from above then it is an under the dashboard job, may be easier to remove any loose panels for access
