My Qashqai 2017 1.5 dci N Vision has Connect3 v6 installed for maps. It does not show speed limit of road. The speed limit flashes up for 15 sec then disappears. Looking for any suggestions

I understand that it is illegal to show speed limits on in-built satellite navigation systems.

Well we have just purchase a 2019 Ford Ecosport which has factory fitted sat nav and it shows speed limit, so I dont know when this law came into force that you are talking about?

.
This has been quoted on here hand the sister Juke forum) many times - it was said to be an EU directive.
I have made the grievous error of parroting that information.
I don’t know where the comment originated, I believe that it’s correct in France so it might even be a "belt n braces" Nissan thing.

Luckily you have the speed limit indicated in your instrument binnacle.

I have a 17 plate Qashqai 1.6 dCi Tenka 5 door hatchback which doesn't show road speed limit on the satnav but speed limit shown on driver console at the top above the main display, I have a plug in garmin satnav that shows road speed limit

Are we confusing speed limits for speed traps. I heard that identifying speed traps, cameras, etc was illegal in France, not speed limits.

The speed limits shown in the small display unit in front of the driver is via the on board cameras which 'see' the speed limit signs at the sides of the road.
