[Hi folks]

Hi Barney....welcome to the Club

Haven't seen a 100NX for quite a few years now, hope you manage to resolve the issues and source the parts you need

[Spare keys cut]

Any key cutter should be able to reproduce one
Timpsons are pretty good at older keys

Hi .... welcome to the Club

How have you got on with the Qashqai so far?

[Qashqai J11 weird sounds]

Not sure but it sounds like the bonnet is loose on the catch and needs the rubber buffers adjusting to take out the free play

[Help - fuel nightmare!]

I wonder if the read out is faulty and the actual fuel is not dropping in the tank as it would seem

The best way is to fill to the brim, run the car for a while once the mileage is reset and then refill and calculate the mileage travelled and how many litres
Do a calculation and see what the actual miles per gallon work out at

 

[Front Passenger Door will not open from inside]

Worth pulling the door card off to see what is going on inside 
Quite an easy job and if you need to take it to a garage then it shouldn't cost much to find the fault and repair it

[T32 Start/Stop system fault]

Maybe a case of switching it off and not using it on every journey
Usually does come down to battery voltage so check the Earth leads and connections to the body and battery are in good condition
 

[working out what a noise is before going to the garage]

You could try pouring some water over the belt (not a lot but a dribble) as the engine is running on tickover
If the noise disappears then the belt is 'dry' or loose and would need replacing or tightening
If the noise doesn't go then try the same process on the belt tensioner (dry bearing) and same rules apply

[SPARES]

You could try AutoDoc who are based in Europe and may stock parts as the Sunny was sold over there
Worth checking their site to see what is available

Not sure if these are parts that can be removed as the pipe remanufacturer can simply replace the damaged section and the connectors stay the same
Alternatively, they would more than likely be able to source something or change the style of connector with a new male and female connectors

Worth trying to see if it can be sorted through a local hydraulic pipe repair company.....I have used a local one to me for years and never failed yet on a particular job yet!

[Front Passenger Door will not open from inside]

It could be the Central Locking is locked and only when the ignition is off will it open?
Alternatively there is a child lock on if its a rear door

[Nox sensor]

There's a few listed here with part numbers

[Hi newbie here👍🏻]

Hi Kevlar .....welcome to the Club

[New member. Primera Power Steering Tube]

I would try a hydraulic pipe/hose remanufacture that makes hoses for industrial equipment such as diggers as they can make one if you take your one in as a pattern

[Micra K12 heater motor removal]

Thanks for the feedback as this may help others to find the issue without dismantling the dashboard
Also handy information that you have on how to remove the dashboard if needed

[engine not responsive to pressing throttle]

I would imagine there should be some fault codes stored either in the engine or transmission ECUs

Worth checking them out to see what comes up and work from there but definitely sounds sensor related

[Drive belt change]

Thank you very much for sharing your experience and useful hints and tips
I'm sure it will definitely make it much easier for anyone else attempting this job

 

[Qashqai MK1 2013 Shaking between 40-50mph]

First thoughts would have been wheel balance but other static/dynamic imbalances can give these symptoms

For the driveshafts, an old trick is to put a jubliee clip (and sometimes a washer or coin underneath the clip if necessary) on the shaft and road test, if necessary, loosen one at a time and rotate slightly to place the weight over a different area to see if this balances the shaft. If it makes no difference then its not the driveshafts

I would however take a look at the tyres on the front and rear by jacking up each corner at a time and spinning the wheel to see if the tyre is out of shape or has a bulge in it the tread area.

[Qashqai J12 - Rear offside door Dumps water...!]

oh my goodness that is drastic - huge amount of water to dump out from inside the vehicle area
I would definitely pursue this as it won't do the car any good over time

[Qashqai model wrong on V5]

Sounds fair enough and possibly a change around on the model spec due to semi-conductor shortages along with other component shortages due to availability of parts following Brexit, Covid, etc

[T31 sat nav]

Not sure but it should be in the handbook possibly?

[Is this something to be concerned with]

I would have that checked immediately as it is in the region of the brake pipes and hoses which look at first glance to have heavy corrosion on them

[hazards work indicators do not]

Sounds like a dead-short to earth somewhere in the wiring
Start by checking each indicator bulb for correct type, corrosion in the bulb holder and then work your way towards the stalk

[Blower fan resistor for Almera]

You could try it and if the resistance is the same or very similar then it will work

[Replacing gauge cluster - mileage?]

Thanks for sharing the removal procedure and sure it will be handy for any other members looking to remove the instrument panel

Be aware that the replacement one may need programming into the vehicle if it has CanBus networking as the instrument panel is the 'Gateway' for the CanBus
Other methods would be to get the panel repaired
