2016 Qashqai problems
Initially I was told the two options would be a partial refund or another car in the same spec but because they would want to keep me as a customer, the latter option would be made more attractive. When it came down to it, the refund turned out to be the better option, so I took it.PJB729 wrote:Just out of interest did Nissan offer to replace the vechile with another one of the same spec?
Happy ending after all. Good work.
So far I'm still happy with my QQ (second hand buy) though it's not perfect.
Gear box is an engineer disaster - nothing can be done.
Front suspension is making iiii sound - was promissed by Nissan that they will replace front shock absorbers (they are dealing with massive recall right now so asked me if I can wait a bit).
Led lights not so good.
Battery was just changed under warranty.
Steering wheels hard left or right makes cracking sound - they promissed to change some absorber if it will still continue after it get a bit warmer weather.
Rear brake pads make clicking noise as you mentioned - they say this is normal.

I wondered if you had been offered a replacement QQ, if Nissan offer you money after a bad expirence it almost certainly means your going to move to an alternative provider.jay70 wrote:Initially I was told the two options would be a partial refund or another car in the same spec but because they would want to keep me as a customer, the latter option would be made more attractive.

The 'revs being slow to drop' I would suggest is normal. It does the same in my 1.5dci. There will be e technical reason for it doing so, but I dont opknow what it is, ive no doubt someone will come along and oblige.
The rattle you are hearing has been discussed previously...it sounds like its a heat shield thats vibrating, not sure which one though, it'll just need tweeking a little.

I have the same car , I can't understand why they are so heavy on petrol , my rev counter does the same , my engine is rattling again and uses lots of oil , it now sounds like a Renault 9 glt , 27 mpg or less in town and a maximum of 37 on long journeys , it has no torgue too move of and is hopeless on wet roads spinning it's wheels

How can it not have any torque but is still able to spin the wheels?Karlyndon65 wrote: it has no torgue too move of and is hopeless on wet roads spinning it's wheels
