Have just had my 2014 1.5 dci, which has done 14K, repaired for the second time in 6 months due to de-gassing. Main dealer said on first occasion that it was 'a faulty seal' on the condenser, this last time it was a 'faulty seam' and the unit was replaced under warranty. On both times I've had the '...

Had the same problem a couple of months ago. My QQ was just 13 months old. Proved to be a bad seal in the compressor that had slowly leaked the gas out. It was repaired and re-gassed without cost under warranty.

I was at my dealers yesterday for a 'complimentary check up' and asked my salesman if things were improving on QQ deliveries. Once he'd stopped rolling around on the floor laughing he said that they were getting more info from Nissan UK on a more regular basis but 1.6Dci's were a long wait and 1.6 C...

You have impeccable taste, biggster Looks fab!(but then....I may be a little biased

I suspect mine is producing the same noise...just over 1600 miles. Hadn't really noticed it 'til comments were made on here. Booked in at the dealers for a 'complimentary' 1500 mile check up in 2 days and I have a "little list", courtesy of this forum , for them to check
