Re: FIRMWARE VERSION

Mine was running D024 so I was keen to update. Thanks for the info and file link duncho. Just a small piece of advice for anyone doing this upgrade: make sure your USB stick is formatted with FAT32 and not NTFS.

Re: AdBlue heading our way on future Nissan Diesels?

Given how atrocious the diesel Qashqai's real-world NOx performance is. I'd say this is extremely necessary. The 1.6 DCi CVT QQ has been tested to emit over 18 times the legal limit of NOx. (source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/resources/idt-sh/how_toxic_is_your_car_exhaust - see "The Truth" ...

Re: Air Conditioning not very cold

Our QQ is 34 months old (July '14), AC been on constantly from day 1. It'd been making "empty" noises for quite a while and finally stopped functioning about 6 weeks ago. Today was the first day our local dealer (Westway Aldershot) could fit it in to look at. Full marks to them for quickly...

Re: J11 Service Schedule - looking for document

Thanks Hound, appreciate the info. Mine is a 1.5dci manual so there will be some variance but it's quite clear how the minor and major should run. Looks like we were "upsold" on last year's service although no harm done. Unfortunately pages 18-19 of my maintenance book are completely blank...

J11 Service Schedule - looking for document

Hi folks, My J11 QQ is now 2yrs old. The service book is missing any info on service intervals - I suspect someone forgot to stick the right sticker in. I know it's 18,000 or 1 year for each service - but can't find concrete information on when it should be major, when minor and what other mileage-r...

Re: Newish AWD owner.

Thanks for posting this switchback. I was looking to buy that aftermarket crossover pack but wasn't sure if it would interfere with the tow bar or parking sensors. Your pics have answered that! :)

Re: Hands free microphone quality

I completely agree with the OP. The quality and background noise are awful.
My wife drives our QQ most of the time and trying to have a call with her using it whilst driving at motorway speeds is nigh-on impossible.
