Re: Buying used qashqai
So after a 3 week wait, a new engine and turbo was fitted into the car. We took it for a spin last Sunday and the new engine went into melt down. Warning signs saying engine stop start system coming up. Chassis system control failure. The salesman said he was just going to cut his losses and send it...

Re: Buying used qashqai
Thanks for all the feedback
With the 1.5 diesel, am I right in thinking it is belt driven? How often would that need changing. Cars I am looking at are 14/15 plates. Wouldn't want to have to fork out for a cambelt change a year after buying it. Or do they just replace them on mileage?
Thanks

Re: Buying used qashqai
Thanks dragstar Do u find it a quite car to drive. That is what my wife is worried about. Doesn't want to hear that diesel noise in the cabin when driving. I know most modern diesels when on a motorway arc u don't really hear the engine. But when they are ticking over they can be quite noisy. Is it ...

Re: Buying used qashqai
Thanks for the replies The car we took on a test drive was a different car. My wife didn't like the colour. One had just arrived that day in nightshade, which she liked the look of. We couldn't take it out as it hadn't had any safety checks. We were told when it was ready we could take it for a spin...

Re: Buying used qashqai
Thanks for that. Interesting read. Couldn't believe how high the fiesta was, considering it's a small car. Been told today the car has been approved for a new engine. My concern is if it fails again in another 20,000 miles or do we think nissan have ironed out all the problems with the new engines. ...

Re: Buying used qashqai
Thanks gvmdaddy
Does it sound like a diesel when in the car.
The sportage we took out was a 1.7 diesel and my wife didn't like the sound of it. Engine was cold but when my wife is saying it sounds like a tractor it's hard to persuade her to try another

Buying used qashqai
Hi all I took a 1.2 acenta premium out for a test drive at a nissan dealer and loved it. Had previously been out in a sportage, which just didn't feel as nice. They had a 2014 1.2 acenta premium in nightshade that had just come in that day. Was told if I put a deposit down they would reserve it for ...
