General electric problems

Had no problems at all with mine, I think you will find the ones who have had problems are very few. It honestly is a great car you should be looking forward to picking it up!

Small stone damage

I tried to get some touch up paint for my Storm White Tekna, I as we'll found out Nissan don't supply it which I think is shocking.

Which gear at 30mph

1.5 DCI, my car likes 3rd at 30mph and struggles a bit in 4th, 31 or 32 and it's happy in 4th.

power

I find my 1.5 DCI more than adequate and keeps up easily with traffic, and cruises at 70 - 80 mph effortlessly on the motorway. Anyone would think it had a bigger engine especially with the weight it is pulling, that's my opinion anyway.

What am i doing wrong. Locking car

I find when I open then the drivers door the radio automatically turns of, then when I lock the car with one of the doors or tailgate the car sometimes beeps back at me and doesn't lock (my key fob is in my pocket), I then wait a couple of seconds and I try again and it then locks with no beeping. I...

Nissan Detailing

I am a big fan of Auto Glym products, especially High Gloss Protection. On this site a member recommended Collinite Wax. I brought some last week. I have a Syorm White Tekna and you should see the shine on it now! It is that good even the wife commented on the shine! Really struggling to find a good...

Installation of Genuine Nissan Qashqai Boot Trunk

I a boot trunk protector on our car, very easy to fit. Make sure you prepare the area first (you will get alcohol wipes provided) and the body work/tape is warm enough. I used a hair dryer for this. Have a few practice goes first (it's easier with 2 people putting it on) though it should fit easily ...

Car Wax

I use Auto Glym Super Resin Polish and the Auto Glym Extra Gloss protection. Leave for an hour and then buff off, the shine is awesome and last ages.

About to order TODAY... but should I?

I picked up our 1.5dci Tekna last week, we absolutely love the car. What I would say is pick a small family dealership and if possible not one of the big chains. We have dealt with a dealer in Great Yarmouth and Norwich (same chain) and one in Southampton and their customer service is awful, trying ...
