Just brought the limited editions  1.3 Nissan qashqai 

had it 6 days and drove it 3 times to work then to find last night wouldn’t start 

Rac - 3hr wait 

then by a Miracle 30 mins later I dipped the clutch and pressed the start button and it started 

rang dealership and she said unless I Had pressed the start then the clutch  In the end  I was pressing everything 

Been out all day today and it’s been ok 

but I taking it to Nissan on Monday for them to recheck it 

any body had the same issues I only ever had manual normal  car with keys 

so this is taking some getting use to and using the electric brake 

but I am getting better 

any top tips off anyone 

😊

 

Hi Dawn.

I also fell foul to the same issue recently, albeit I knew I had to dip the clutch pedal but I hadn't pressed it down far enough (only by a fraction) which was enough for it not to start.

I then altered the seat setting a little closer and this resolved the issue.

It does take a bit of getting used to and also the handbrake can be daunting until familiar with it.

At least I don’t feel so bad know I thought the car was playing up I any had it 6 days many thanks 😊

Good luck with it and if in doubt 'read the handbook'
Essential bedtime reading 🙂

 

Morning Dawn 

Push the clutch all the way down, put the key fob on the start button & then push the fob against the button, there is a sensor in the fob that recognise the car & will even start it if the battery in the fob is dead, 

I have looked at every possibility on line/ you tub because I have a Quashqui that has had 4 flat batteries in 8 months,!, hope this helps & you don't end up like me, 

Good luck 

Tina 😊
