Just loosing coolant
That's positive news. If it wasn't overheating it is much less likely the head has warped.
As others have suggested, go somewhere with a good reputation, this isn't a job to try and save a few quid.
Good luck

Re: J12 Start stop power surge

Hi, reply from a Dutch Qashqai J12 owner. I have driven my QQ (model comparable to Accenta Premium with XTronic) as of mid March 2022 for about 10.000 miles now, and I am unfortunately very familiar with the power surges when coming to a stand-still (during parking or at a traffic light). Besides v...

Re: The 2023 Rogue 1.5-3 201 BHP engine should have made it in the Qashqai !

Considering that engine is only 200cc & 40bhp more than our 1.3cc 158bhp engine, the fuel economy is shockingly bad.
"31 mpg combined", that equates to 26mpg in the uk because of the imperial measurements... or has that all changed now?

Re: J11b versus J12 comparison

Sorry misread your post. I didn't drive the J11b either so I can't compare the steering between the 2 cars. Normal mode it feels terrible for me but on the other hand, my wife loves it. Personally, I was really surprised at how well the J12 performs on twisy roads, especially for a big car with such...

Re: J11b versus J12 comparison

Agreed about the J12 steering. In the 'normal mode' it is too light and lacks feedback.
Sport mode is much better, it stiffens the system up and gives a lot more feel for the road.

This is mine for example.

Or this us only infotainment software that has nothing to do with the ecu version?
I don't think it would have anything to do with it but I'm not 100% sure.
