Qashqai Model: Mk.1 Qashqai Facelift - J10b (2010–2013)

Post by acerf1 »

My Nissan Qashqai is having trouble starting when left overnight or if left for a while.

Takes a few attempts to start.


Once started its starts again but always on the 2nd crank. Tested the battery and seems to be ok. Priming the fuel bulb does not make much difference.

no error codes on a cheap scanner.

Any ideas about what it could be?

Many thanks

glo-plugs may need replaceing. the priming fuel bulb is for when the fuel filter is replaced normally
