Re: 2013 1.5 dCi engine type

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I appreciate you taking the time.
Seems it is a K9K, so that’s great!
Doesn’t seem covered by the manual, and there don’t seem to be many in a Qashqai!
I’ve done EGR valve cleans on all my motors, but always research them first…so this one is proving tricky!!

2013 1.5 dCi engine type

Hi Forum,
Looking for some help please.
Trying to clean the EGR on my wife’s 2013 Qashqai and all the guides I can find don’t reference the engine type she has!
Does anyone recognise this engine type?
Or could give me some pointers?
Thanks!

Re: Bonnet latch cable broken

Yeah I’ve been thinking the grill may need to be removed and sacrificed. I’ve looked, and even second hand they’re really expensive!
Joys of motoring hey?!

Re: Bonnet latch cable broken

Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated. I’ve tried going at it from underneath, but the bumper and bumper mud cover make it pretty impossible to get my arm in there. I’d need arms like stretch Armstrong :lol: See if this attachment helps - Dave 😊 Bonnet stuck on my Nissan Qashqai, what can I ...

Bonnet latch cable broken

Hi All!

As title suggests, my wife’s 13 plate Qashqai’s bonnet latch cable has snapped, or come lose under the bonnet.

Anyone know:
- how do I release the bonnet?
- is it a ‘simple’ enough job to replace the cable (assuming it is actually broken!)

Cheers!

Re: Headlight level adjuster

I presume: A] You've checked the rod is going in and out? B] You've set it fully out and tried pushing it into the headlight? Looks like it's a simple click fit? Yes, tried/checked both. The locator slides away into the headlight when I try and click it in. Tried holding in place with a screwdriver...

There may be cheaper options - I found this for instance at https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311317658851?var=0 - £112.99 delivered

Buyer beware of course....
That’s the one I looked at first, but it doesn’t fit our Qashqai. The one that does is the most expensive!!
