Re: Why is my new QQ so bad?

Hi Keka, Sorry to learn about those issues. I have little problems with any shortcomings you describe though. I have the about same car (but Tekna Plus and 6MT instead of Xtronix/CVT, 156 BHP) 15000 KM in 20 months As an answer to some of your reported issues / shortcoming : -Gearbox slow : I have t...

Re: J12 - System and Engine warning message during the start-up

Hello olacry, I experience the exact same issue. In the 18 month / 11.700 km I drive my Tekna+ MHEV it happened twice. If I stop and exit, lock the car and return afterwards ths issue is 'gone' and everything seems OK. The first time it happened to me was about 14 month ago, so I guess that is not t...

Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss

@rickwilliams. That's -of course- terrible and ... bad luck ! I knew of the Renault/Nissan 1.2 T engine (oil loss-) problems as well as the well known CVT issues. But I never imagined Nissan would not acknowledge such problem(s), at least not if it is that obvious !? When (in the past as I recall) T...

Re: Nissan Qashqai 1.3 DIG-T Tekna 140ps vs 160ps

Using those tuning modules on the new QQ may turn out the best way to mess up quite a bit as well as voiding the warranty. I know there are tuning centers, but in some countries changing BHP is illegal and ... may even get you into trouble with the insurance company if you wreck the car and the insu...

Re: Just got an ePower QQ

"My only problem is the auto opening of the wing mirrors. " According to the dealership this is a known issue ! One of the mirrors makes more sound than the other and moves more slowly. I have to keep it on AUTO (not manual or one of both gets stuck once is while. Also, if the car is parke...

Re: Excessive noise from ePower Tekna

alexanderkrik, I don't think I would take the risk of finding out what a new battery might cost. I think IF I had an e-power I would rather sell it before that 5 or 8 year warranty/limit. My previous cars all got more than 10 years of life and if I wanted those (Toyota/Mazda) could have easily reach...

Re: Excessive noise from ePower Tekna

Thank you for your explanation alexanderkrik. Indeed a more serious issue may be the e-power battery malfuntioning. How much would replacement of such a battery cost (if it ever brakes down) ? I this proves to be far more than, say, 1000 pound then an e-power may not be the best choice in every use ...

Re: Excessive noise from ePower Tekna

"e-Power car's idle revs are 1500 and goes up to a maximum of 4800. " At each cold start ... this may become rather bad for the engine or not !? My non-e-power 2021+ 1.33 QQ engine never exceeded 3000 rpm or so. I wonder how the e-power 1.5 3-cyl ICE engine will cope with these higher rpm ...

Re: To sell or keep on going?!

I have no idea what you would get for a 6 year old car in the UK, but in my country selling it at that age is not really a good idea. Even £500 is, IMHO, nothing is you would compare it to the immense financial loss by selling the car at that age. £500 in fact means you would get another 44k miles ....
