Re: Vehicle/DPF Monitoring - Scangauge

Yes - the correct engine information certainly is out there, if you look hard enough, and know how to interpret a few things (or are willing to learn). The torque app is is fully programmable, just that out of the box a number of things seem to be non functional, and more importantly, completely wro...

Re: Vehicle/DPF Monitoring - Scangauge

So looks like there is little interest out there from others... but I thought I'd wrap up this thread. So looks like my fears of DPF issues due to little use/short trips was unfounded. I was even surprised to see a regen kick off with still, I believe, fairly low soot level, and complete within a sh...

Re: Vehicle/DPF Monitoring - Scangauge

Thankyou - I shall pour over that document to see if I can work out any further engine parameters worth monitoring. Most of all I wanted to know the state of the DPF as the car has been sitting quite idle, and the trips that I have been making for the most part have been very short metro trips, whic...

Re: Vehicle/DPF Monitoring - Scangauge

Engine capacity is 1.6TD - I believe it's R9M The same scangauge/codes have also been tested on another Nissan using a 2.0L M9R I have also been trying to work out a baseline as to what these values should be. Glad to say it looks like after a year of mostly short trips, it looks like my DPF appears...

Re: Vehicle/DPF Monitoring - Scangauge

The car is a 2014 Qashqai TL model, diesel with CVT auto.

The PIDs/codes I used where in fact listed from other Nissan vehicles, as there doesn't seem to be much information regarding codes for the Qashqai, so they don't seem to be too vehicle specific.

Vehicle/DPF Monitoring - Scangauge

Hi folks, So with a bit of spare time over the Christmas/New Year's break, and some concern of my car's DPF, given that it's mainly been short trips within the city recently, I've ventured down a deep rabbit hole of vehicle diagnostics, CANBUS and x-gauges. First of all messing around with the torqu...

Re: NissanConnect v2 vs Original NissanConnect

I have a '14 qashqai with an ipod permanently connected in the centre console with music loaded on it and have no issues also streaming audio from an Android phone with it still connected. Just need to hit the aux button again to cycle between them.

Re: Hello. Am new and need advice re: dashcam fitting

It doesnt really matter which side/fusebox the dashcam is connected to at the end of the day. If you can find an appropriate power source in the fusebox it's wired to, then just rewire it to that. Only if you can't find an appropriate always on power source in there, then you'll have to get it rewir...
