Re: 1.5 dci won't start

I did, but in response to the problem of it not starting to eliminate air leaks. If I disconnect the return pipe from the pump, diesel sprays out, so the pump is pumping. The pressure regulator / suction control valve isn't getting a signal. It has 12v but no ground.

1.5 dci won't start

Hello. I have a 2012 Nissan Qashqai that won't start. There is fuel to the pump, and when cranking it pumps it straight back to the return side. I have had a scope on the fuel pressure regulator and it has no signal. The +12v is present but no ground. A scan tool registers no faults, and that the ca...

2012 Quashqai immobiliser.

Hello. I have a 2012 Quashqai 1.5 diesel. When I put the key in and turn to start, nothing happens. The immobiliser light stays lit steady red. If I leave it for about 15 minutes with the ignition on, the light goes out and the engine will turn over but only once. Has anybody else seen this?

Re: 2012 1.5 dci starts and cuts straight out

So. Got around to doing a leak back test today. All 4 injectors leak off an amount that is about 1/8th an inch up the leak off pipe with each cycle? Is it normal to have fuel leaking off when cranking?

Re: 2012 1.5 dci starts and cuts straight out

Yes. I think you're right. If the engine was being shut down by the ECU I'd expect I'd expect it to throw a code.

Re: 2012 1.5 dci starts and cuts straight out

Hello Lewisbryant. The fuel pressure is between 28 and 32 bar whilst cranking, and the engine fires, and the fuel pressure shoots up to about 300 bar and the engine cuts out. Try it again and the same happens. One thing I've noticed, if the car has been sat for a couple of days, it turns over for ag...

Re: 2012 1.5 dci starts and cuts straight out

Hello Did. Thankyou for your reply. I've checked the fuel pump fuse, it's ok. I presume you mean the in-tank lift pump. I've not yet checked that for a supply, but I did consider the fuel pump, as I've never heard it making the whirring noise. Why it has one as well as a priming bulb... God only kno...

2012 1.5 dci starts and cuts straight out

Hello. My 2012 Quashqai 1.5 dci starts, fires for about a second and cuts straight out. Try again, it does the same. The only fault code is a glow plug circuit code, which has always been there. Has anybody else experienced this?
Thankyou in advance.
